Brad Peacock

The Twins have signed Brad Peacock to a minor league deal. He was assigned to Triple-A Saint Paul.

Fantasy Impact

Peacock last pitched for the Red Sox in 2021 and struggled, having a 15.19 ERA in 2 appearances. The Twins bullpen could use some depth and Peacock has been efficient in the past, so it's possible he could provide some value. Still, he will have to prove himself over an extended period of time to be considered in any format.

Peacock signed a Minor League deal with the Royals according to MLB's transaction log and reported by MLB Trade Rumors.

Fantasy Impact

Peacock had shoulder surgery in 2020, which limited him to just 2.1 innings pitched, and he returned with the Red Sox in 2021, pitching just 5.1 innings. He spent time between the rotation and bullpen in Houston but was between 2016 through 2019 as he posted a 3.48 ERA in 320 innings. Peacock has proven to be a dominant arm in the past, so it is an interesting flier for the Royals to take. Monitor how Peacock looks when Spring Training begins.
