Moving to bullpen The Rockies announced Sunday that Lambert will open the season as a long reliever, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Impact The 26-year-old was fighting for a rotation spot but posted a 5.40 ERA over 16.2 spring innings and lost out to Dakota Hudson and Ryan Feltner. Lambert worked as a swingman for Colorado last season with 11 starts in 25 appearances, and he should fill a similar role in 2024.

Rockies place RHP Peter Lambert (biceps) on 15-day IL The Colorado Rockies placed right-hander Peter Lambert on the 15-day injured list on Saturday with right biceps tendinitis.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • SACBEE.COM

Out with biceps tendinitis Lambert was placed on the 15-day injured list with right biceps tendinitis Saturday.

Impact Lambert technically has time to return before the end of the season, but the timing of the injury makes it quickly likely that he's done for the year. If that's the case, he'll end his age-26 season having recorded a 5.36 ERA and 1.39 WHIP across 11 starts and 14 relief appearances. Karl Kauffmann was called up to take his place on the roster.

Hit hard in loss Lambert (3-7) gave up six runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings, taking the loss Sunday versus the Giants.

Impact The Rockies gave Lambert a 3-0 lead to work with in the second inning, but it was gone by the end of the third. The Giants teed off with three homers in this contest, the most Lambert's given up in an appearance this season. He's now at a 5.36 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 71:28 K:BB through 87.1 innings over 25 appearances (11 starts). The right-hander is projected for a rematch at home with the Giants in his next outing.

SEPTEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Coughs up four runs Lambert (3-6) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk over six innings Monday, striking out five and taking a loss against Arizona.

Impact Lambert gave up one run through three innings before the Diamondbacks plated three runs in the fourth. Entering Monday, he had a streak of four straight outings with three or fewer runs allowed. Lambert saw his season ERA climb back to 5.03 while being handed a second consecutive loss. He's currently expected to face the Cubs at home next week.

Solid despite loss Lambert (3-5) took the loss Tuesday, allowing three runs on nine hits over five innings against Atlanta. He struck out two.

Impact Though Lambert fell to his fifth loss of the campaign, he surrendered just three runs, notching his fourth straight start yielding three or fewer runs. However, he was tagged by Marcell Ozuna for a solo home run in the second inning to mark Lambert's fifth consecutive outing giving up a long ball. Over his last four appearances (23 innings), Lambert owns a 3.52 ERA to go along with a 17:3 K:BB. He's tentatively lined up to take on the Diamondbacks in Arizona for his next start.

Allows two homers in no-decision Lambert did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk over five innings against the Rays. He struck out six.

Impact Lambert got taken deep by Luke Raley on a hanging four-seamer to lead off the bottom of the second and was again victimized by the outfielder in the fourth, this time on a triple, before the latter came around to score a second time. Those would be the only two runs allowed by Lambert on the afternoon as he made it through at least five innings for the third consecutive start. The right-hander has allowed at least one home run in each of his last four starts and now carries a 5.19 ERA in August. On a positive note, he's issued just one walk in each of his last three outings, striking out 15 over that stretch.

AUGUST 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fans five in win Lambert (3-4) yielded one run on four hits and a walk over seven innings Friday, striking out five and earning a win over the White Sox.

Impact Lambert served up a leadoff homer to Elvis Andrus in the first inning but settled in for an impressive outing. It was Lambert's longest outing of the year and his first time punching out at least five batters since May 13. He lowered his season ERA to 5.02 with a 56:24 K:BB through 66.1 frames. Lambert is currently lined up to start in Tampa Bay next week.

Rockies hit 3 home runs, Lambert pitches 7 strong innings as Rockies beat White Sox 13-1

AUGUST 19, 2023 • Associated Press

Turns in quality start Lambert (2-4) allowed three runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out four over six innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Dodgers.

Impact Given the quality of the opponent and the fact he gave up all three runs over the first two innings, Lambert was lucky to emerge with a quality start, his second of the season. The right-hander has compiled a 5.46 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 51:23 K:BB through 59.1 innings over 20 appearances (six starts). He was shaky in his first two outings of August and remains a risky option in fantasy given his home park, where he's expected to make his next start versus the lowly White Sox.

AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slips up in fourth inning Lambert (2-3) allowed five runs on four hits and three walks while striking out four over 3.2 innings to take the loss Monday versus the Brewers.

Impact Lambert held his own over the first three innings, but it all fell apart in the fourth. He's given up nine runs over his last eight innings while taking a pair of losses in his last two starts. The right-hander has a 5.57 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 47:22 K:BB through 53.1 innings over 19 appearances (five starts) this season. Lambert remains in the rotation despite his poor performance since the Rockies have no better options available. He's projected to face the Dodgers on the road this weekend.

AUGUST 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Comes back to earth Lambert (2-2) took the loss Tuesday, allowing four runs on four hits and two walks over 4.1 innings against the Padres. He struck out two.

Impact Lambert entered Tuesday's start having not allowed a single earned run over his last 15 innings and had allowed just one run when he was pulled from the contest. However, he left the bases loaded when he exited the game and all three runners eventually came around to score to end Lambert's start with four earned runs. With four starts under his belt, Lambert owns a 1.96 ERA and a 9:5 K:BB through 18.1 innings as part of the Rockies rotation. He's tentatively scheduled to make another start in Milwaukee early next week.

AUGUST 2, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs quality start Lambert did not factor into the decision Wednesday, allowing one unearned run on three hits and one walk over six innings against Washington. He struck out two.

Impact Lambert more than held his own Wednesday, limiting the Nationals to just one unearned run on the afternoon while notching his first quality start of the season. The right-hander produced three 1-2-3 innings and needed only 78 pitches to get through six frames. He has not allowed an earned run over his last 14 innings of work (spanning three starts) and lowered his season ERA to 4.76 with Wednesday's performance.

JULY 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Getting another start Lambert is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Nationals in Washington.

Impact The Rockies have been short on reliable starting pitching nearly all season, so it comes as little surprise that Lambert will get another turn through the rotation after he dazzled in his return from Triple-A Albuquerque over the weekend. Prior to being recalled Friday, Lambert had worked in a multi-inning relief role with Colorado earlier in the season, but he looks like he'll get a chance to make regular starts with the big club now that he's had a chance to get fully stretched out in the minors. While facing off against Miami last weekend, Lambert held the Marlins scoreless over five innings while striking out three and allowing just four baserunners. The matchup with a Washington offense that has been a bottom-third unit in terms of wRC+ (95, 22nd in the majors) is a favorable one on paper for Lambert, though Nationals Park has historically skewed hitter-friendly.

Lambert's stellar start and 3 early homers propel Rockies to 6-1 win over skidding Marlins

JULY 22, 2023 • Associated Press

Goes five scoreless in win Lambert (2-1) tossed five scoreless innings, scattering three hits and one walk, to earn his second win of the season Friday versus the Marlins. He struck out three.

Impact Lambert was called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday afternoon and seemingly secured his spot in the Rockies' injury-ravaged rotation with a dominant effort at loanDepot park in Miami. He needed just 77 pitches (51 strikes) to navigate the five scoreless frames. Up next is another favorable matchup against the Athletics, though that game will be played at hitter-friendly Coors Field and Lambert carries an overall 5.49 ERA in 39.1 major-league innings this year.

JULY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled ahead of Friday's start Lambert was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Friday.

Impact He will start for the Rockies on Friday in Miami, taking the rotation spot vacated by Connor Seabold, who has been demoted to the bullpen. Lambert is no safe bet to be an upgrade, having collected a 6.29 ERA in 34.1 innings of work this season at the major-league level.

JULY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will start Friday Lambert will be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to start Friday at Miami, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

Impact Saunders adds that Connor Seabold has been demoted to the Rockies' bullpen. Lambert holds an ugly 6.29 ERA in 34.1 innings of work this season at the major-league level, but he pitched pretty well in his last two starts with Albuquerque, scattering three earned runs while tallying eight strikeouts across 8.1 frames.

JULY 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to minors Lambert was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

Impact Lambert covered three scoreless innings as Colorado's opener Saturday, but he's now being sent down in favor of a fresh arm. The 26-year-old has a 6.29 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 36:15 K:BB across 34.1 innings with the Rockies this season.

Does well as opener Lambert allowed two hits and a walk while striking out two over three scoreless innings in Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Tigers. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact The Rockies utilized a bullpen game Saturday, and Lambert covered the most innings as the opener. Three of his five scoreless outings this season have come in his last five appearances. He's also given up multiple runs in seven of his 15 outings. The right-hander remains a multi-inning option out of the bullpen. He's pitched to a lackluster 6.29 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 36:15 K:BB through 34.1 innings while posting a 1-1 record this year.
