Has workload limited Pepiot (9-10) picked up the win Sunday against St. Louis, allowing one hit and one walk across five scoreless innings. He struck out three.
Impact Pepiot had no issues with the Cardinals' lineup, allowing just two baserunners in five innings of work. Surprisingly, he was pulled after five innings and 63 pitches. An injury hasn't been reported, so it seems as though the Rays are limiting his innings in the closing stages of the regular season. Pepiot has thrown a career-high 153 innings in 2025, topping his previous high of 130 innings set last season. The 28-year-old hadn't thrown fewer than 84 pitches in an appearance since June 27. He had allowed 17 runs across four starts spanning 21.2 innings before Sunday's outing. Pepiot is lined up to face the Nationals next weekend.

Saddled with 10th loss Pepiot (8-10) took the loss Sunday at San Francisco, coughing up four runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out eight.
Impact The 28-year-old generated an impressive 17 whiffs out of his 93 total pitches but unraveled late in this outing. After blanking the Giants over five innings, Pepiot conceded four runs on four hits and a walk in the sixth. The Tampa Bay right-hander has struggled since the All-Star break, posting a 5.88 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 36:14 K:BB across 33.2 frames. Pepiot may be wearing down, as he's pitched a career-high 142.1 total innings, which could cause the Rays to seek respite for him down the stretch. He is currently scheduled to make his next start at home against St. Louis next weekend.

Picks up eighth victory Pepiot (8-9) earned the win over the Athletics on Monday, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks while striking out four batters over 6.1 innings.
Impact Pepiot cruised through four scoreless frames before giving up a solo homer to Shea Langeliers in the fifth. The veteran hurler pitched into the seventh, but his final line was spoiled a bit when the final batter he faced -- Tyler Soderstrom -- tagged him for a three-run homer. Nonetheless, Pepiot got enough run support to end up with the victory, and this was the deepest he has pitched since he tossed eight frames against Baltimore on June 16. The right-hander's next start is slated to be against the Rays this weekend.

Grabs seventh win Pepiot (7-9) earned the win Tuesday, allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against the Angels. He struck out six.
Impact The right-hander worked through four scoreless innings before Jo Adell got to him for three runs across the fifth and sixth innings. Tuesday's outing followed a rocky July for Pepiot, during which he posted a 5.03 ERA and 1.26 WHIP over 34 innings in six starts. While his season ERA sits at a respectable 3.77, the 27-year-old has already reached a career-high 136 innings, and a 4.58 FIP points to his July struggles potentially reflecting regression rather than bad luck.
