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.
