Joel Peguero Called Up From Triple-A Sacramento
San Francisco Giants pitching prospect Joel Peguero has been called up to the majors from Triple-A Sacramento for what will be his big league debut whenever he enters a game. The 28-year-old's numbers at Triple-A weren't pretty, recording a 5.10 ERA (4.78 FIP), 1.61 WHIP, and a 12.0 percent K-BB% in 42 1/3 innings of relief, but he can hit triple-digits with his fastball and had pitched better as of late. The 5-foot-11 Dominican posted a 2.33 ERA, 0.88 WHIP, and a 21.3 percent K-BB% over his last 12 appearances (19 1/3 IP). The right-hander will likely fill a middle relief role for the Giants, though, and unless he's thrust into a high-leverage role, he doesn't warrant grabbing off the waiver wire.
