Ryan Pepiot - Page 8 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Could get Kershaw's spot Pepiot is no longer listed as Saturday's starting pitcher for Triple-A Oklahoma City, and it's possible he will make his next start next week for the big club with Clayton Kershaw...

Impact The Dodgers have the option of going with a four-man rotation until Aug. 16 in Milwaukee, but they could also give everyone some extra rest next week and add Pepiot to the rotation at some point in the two-game series at home against the Twins on Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Pepiot has a 3.20 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, 17 strikeouts and seven walks in 19.2 innings over his last three starts at Triple-A. He has electric stuff, but sometimes his control can abandon him, so Pepiot is a high-risk/high-reward option whenever he makes MLB spot starts.

Returns to minors Pepiot was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Impact Pepiot picked up his first big-league win Wednesday after giving up one run with six strikeouts over five innings, but he won't stick around the major-league club. The right-hander has a 2.76 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 19:12 K:BB across 16.1 frames in his first taste of the majors this year.

Ryan Pepiot gets first MLB win as Dodgers hold off Rockies Max Muncy and Mookie Betts hit first-pitch home runs to power the Dodgers past the Colorado Rockies 5-2 on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.

Earns first big-league win Pepiot (1-0) allowed a run on four hits and a walk with six strikeouts in five innings, earning the win Tuesday over the Rockies.

Impact Pepiot gave up an RBI double to Jose Iglesias in the second inning, but he was able to keep the Rockies' offense in check from there. This was the first time in four starts Pepiot has completed five innings, and it was also the first time he didn't walk multiple batters. The rookie right-hander owns a 2.76 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 19:12 K:BB through 16.1 innings overall. The Dodgers have off days next Monday and a week from Sunday, so they're unlikely to need a sixth starter before the All-Star break -- Pepiot will likely head back to Triple-A Oklahoma City or move to the bullpen in the near future.

Recalled for Tuesday's start Pepiot will join the 26-man roster and start Tuesday's game versus Colorado, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Mitch White was scheduled to start, but instead Pepiot, who has a 3.18 ERA and 13:11 K:BB through three outings this season, will get the nod. Walks have been a problem for Pepiot in the minors, too, as he's issued three free passes in each of his last three starts at Triple-A and 25 total in 55.2 innings in 2022.

Sent down Saturday Pepiot was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.

Impact The right-hander started Friday's game against the Diamondbacks and gave up a run on three hits and three walks while striking out five in 4.1 innings. While Pepiot was effective in his third major-league start, he'll head back to the minors after Michael Grove was recalled by the Dodgers on Saturday.

Called up ahead of start Pepiot was recalled as expected and will start Friday against Arizona.

Impact Pepiot owns a respectable 3.86 ERA through his first two major-league starts, but he's lasted a combined seven innings while walking eight batters. He won't be able to rely on a .133 BABIP going forward, though his 1.72 ERA in seven starts for Triple-A Oklahoma City suggests there's hope his performance rises to match his results.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Friday Pepiot will start Friday's game against the Diamondbacks, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Although Pepiot was sent down last week, he traveled with the Dodgers for their road trip to Arizona and will make his third major-league start Friday. Over his first two starts, the right-hander posted a 3.86 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in seven innings.

MAY 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Travels with team to Arizona Pepiot is with the Dodgers to begin their road trip in Arizona, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Dodgers haven't yet announced a starter for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks, but Pepiot seems like a strong candidate to take the mound. The right-hander has made two major-league starts this year, and he posted a 3.86 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in seven innings prior to being optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City last week.

MAY 26, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Moves back to Oklahoma City The Dodgers optioned Pepiot to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Impact Pepiot's demotion comes after he served as the 27th man in Tuesday's doubleheader with the Diamondbacks. He started the first game of the twin bill, taking a no-decision while striking out five over four frames and allowing three earned runs on two hits and three walks. The Dodgers are expected to require a new fifth starter in next week's series in Arizona, so Pepiot could be summoned from the minors at that time to fill the void in the rotation.

Allows three runs in no-decision Pepiot gave up three earned runs on two hits and three walks over four innings during Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks. He had five strikeouts and didn't f...

Impact The 24-year-old served as the 27th man for Tuesday's twin bill and made his second career big-league start in the matinee. Pepiot threw only 52 of his 87 pitches for strikes and now has eight walks over seven innings between his two outings. Despite the command issues, the right-hander should remain in the mix for starts going forward since Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) and Andrew Heaney (shoulder) remain on the injured list with no clear return timelines.

Dodgers News: Ryan Pepiot Set to Make Second Start of MLB Career The Dodgers will turn to Ryan Pepiot for the second time in less than a week.

MAY 17, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Confirmed for start Tuesday The Dodgers recalled Pepiot from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday and will have him start the first game of the team's doubleheader with the Diamondbacks in Los Angeles.

Impact Pepiot is designated as the 27th man for the twin bill, so he'll presumably head back to Oklahoma City at the conclusion of Tuesday's start. The 24-year-old right-hander made his big-league debut last week in Pittsburgh, striking out three over three scoreless innings but not advancing deep into the start after he issued five walks. Pepiot will aim to improve his efficiency in Tuesday's outing, and a better showing against Arizona could keep him in the conversation to make another turn through the rotation when the Dodgers next require a fifth starter May 24 in Washington.

The Dodgers' rotation is missing some familiar names, so the team is counting on its offense and farm system, Pedro Moura writes.

'In the mix' to start Tuesday Dodgers manager Dave Roberts indicated Sunday that Pepiot is "in the mix" to start one of the games during Tuesday's doubleheader against Arizona, Bill Plunkett of The Orange Count...

Impact Pepiot made his major-league debut in Pittsburgh on Wednesday and tossed three scoreless innings despite walking five batters. He was subsequently sent back down to Triple-A Oklahoma City, but the Dodgers may have shown their hand by assigning him to Single-A Rancho Cucamonga -- where the Quakes play their home games about 50 miles east of Los Angeles -- on Saturday. The Dodgers are in the midst of a stretch during which they play 31 games in 30 days and recently moved starter Clayton Kershaw (pelvis) to the injured list, so pitching depth is at a premium for the team at the moment.

Sent down Thursday Pepiot was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Impact Pepiot made his major-league debut Wednesday against the Pirates and allowed a hit and five walks while striking out three in three scoreless innings. While the right-hander will lose his spot on the major-league roster, he's still a strong candidate to start during one of the two games in Tuesday's doubleheader against the Diamondbacks.

Dodgers: Ryan Pepiot Discusses The First MLB Start of His Young Career Dodgers pitching prospect Ryan Pepiot made his major league debut on Tuesday.

MAY 12, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Struggles with control Pepiot allowed one hit and walked five while striking out three across three scoreless innings Wednesday against the Pirates. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Pepiot was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to the game to make his big-league debut. He struggled to consistently find the zone, as he hit a batter -- in addition to his five walks -- and only 40 of his 77 pitches went for strikes. That portion of his performance wasn't particularly surprising given that he has a 4.4 BB/9 across 68 innings with Oklahoma City, and there isn't a compelling reason to believe that his control problems will improve in the immediate future. Even so, with the Dodgers in line for a doubleheader Tuesday, Pepiot will likely get to take another turn through the rotation.
