Ends season with loss Peralta (4-5) allowed five runs (two earned) on nine hits and three walks over six innings Friday, striking out three and taking a loss against the White Sox.
Impact Through three innings, the only damage against Peralta was a solo shot by Jose Abreu. He coughed up three runs after an error by Jonathan Schoop in the fourth and was charged with one final run in the sixth. He allowed two or fewer earned runs in his last seven starts, lowering his season ERA to 3.07 through 93.2 frames.

Suffers fourth loss Sunday Peralta (4-4) allowed two runs on eight hits across 4.2 innings of work to take the loss Sunday against the Royals. He walked three and struck out three.
Impact Facing off against one of his former teams, Peralta was unable to duplicate his efforts from his last two starts, when he allowed no runs across 13 innings of work. He was sort of lucky to allow just the two runs Sunday with 11 baserunners clogging things up in his 4.2 innings on the mound. Peralta still has a solid 3.08 ERA for the season and will look to end his campaign on a high note in his next scheduled outing Friday against the White Sox.

Looks brilliant in win Peralta (4-3) tossed seven scoreless innings to pick up the win Sunday against the Rays. He allowed three hits and three walks while striking out three.
Impact Peralta has pitched well for the Tigers, as he's now logged 13 scoreless innings across his last two starts, lowering his ERA to 3.04 in the process. The 32-year-old wasn't in the rotation to begin the season, though he's possibly pitching himself into the team's plans for 2022. Peralta is scheduled to start again Saturday against the Royals.

Settles for no-decision Peralta blanked the Brewers across six innings during Tuesday's no-decision. He allowed two hits and a pair of walks while striking out five.
Impact Peralta left with the game tied at 3-3, and Tigers didn't end up winning until the 11th, leaving the right-hander with his eighth no-decision over his last nine starts. The good news is that Peralta was finally able to pitch deeper into the game after lasting just four innings in each of his first two starts since returning from the injured list. The 32-year-old has put together a 3.32 ERA and 1.26 WHIP overall this season and projects for his next start Sunday at Tampa Bay.

Lasts four innings Peralta allowed one run on six hits and three walks across four innings during Tuesday's loss to the Pirates. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Making his second start since his return from the injured list, Peralta had trouble keeping the Pirates off the bases, though he did manage to limit damage. The 32-year-old has pitched just four innings in both outings since recovering from a blister on his right hand and will look to stretch things out during his next time on the mound. Overall this season, Peralta has compiled a 3.60 ERA and 1.31 WHIP across 70 innings (14 starts).

Goes four innings in return Peralta (finger) gave up three runs (two earned) on four hits and a walk over four innings in Wednesday's no-decision against Oakland. He also had a pair of strikeouts.
Impact Peralta was making his return to the mound after a 10-day stay on the injured list. He gave up a sacrifice fly to Matt Olson in the first inning, put up zeroes for the next two frames, then gave up a Starling Marte solo homer and Jed Lowrie RBI double in the fourth. That effectively marked the end of the night for Peralta, who was unable to pitch into the fifth inning for just the second time since the start of July. Peralta has been a stabilizing arm in Detroit's rotation, posting a stellar 3.68 ERA in 66 innings, but his low K rate (15.0%) and unimpressive xERA (4.35) suggest it's probably not sustainable.

Activated prior to start Peralta (finger) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's start against Oakland.
Impact Peralta will return to the Tigers after spending the minimum of 10 days on the injured list due to a blister on a finger on his right hand. The 32-year-old gave up at least two runs in each of his six starts prior to his absence, and he recorded a 5.90 ERA and 1.62 WHIP in 29 innings during that time. He had posted a 1.64 ERA across his first seven appearances of the season and will attempt to get back on track against the Athletics on Wednesday.

Impact Peralta will end up spending the minimum amount of time on the shelf due to a blister on a finger on his pitching hand. After submitting a 1.64 ERA and 0.94 WHIP in his first seven outings with the Tigers, Peralta's ratios predictably backslid during his subsequent six starts (5.90 ERA, 1.62 WHIP) before landing on the shelf. The more recent starts are likely a better reflection of what to expect from Peralta moving forward; his 5.21 FIP, 6.2 K-BB% and .242 BABIP are all indicators that he's pitched over his head and has benefited from some fortunate luck.

Shut down with blister The Tigers placed Peralta on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a blister on a finger on his right hand.
Impact Peralta likely developed the blister at some point in the Tigers' 3-0 loss to the Blue Jays on Saturday, when he churned out his third quality start of the season while working six innings and allowing two runs on six hits and a walk. Detroit had already been rolling out a six-man rotation of late, and with off days coming Monday and Thursday, the team will most likely get by with five starters until Peralta is eligible to return Sept. 1.

Tough loss Saturday Peralta (3-3) took the loss Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk over six innings as the Tigers were downed 3-0 by the Blue Jays. He struck out two.
Impact The veteran right-hander delivered his third quality start of the season and his only real mistake got deposited in the seats for a two-run homer by Randal Grichuk in the second inning, but Peralta got no help at all from the Detroit offense. He'll carry a 3.63 ERA and 39:23 K:BB through 62 innings into his next outing.

Fans six in no-decision Peralta didn't factor into the decision Saturday against Cleveland after allowing three runs on six hits and three walks while fanning six across 4.1 innings.
Impact Peralta went a bit deeper than his counterpart, Sam Hentges, but he was also unable to pitch five complete frames before departing. While he was far from effective and struggled a bit with his command, Peralta has now given up three or fewer runs in three straight outings and owns a decent 3.70 ERA across 56 innings on the year. If he manages to maintain his ERA below the 4.00 threshold, it would be the second time over the last three seasons in which he accomplishes that feat.
