In fine form after stumble
Petit, who fired 1.1 perfect innings during which he recorded a strikeout in a win over the Astros on Sunday, now has a five-appearance scoreless streak in which he's allowed just...
Impact
The strong stretch comes directly in the wake of one of Petit's poorest outings of the season, a Sept. 14 appearance versus the Royals during which he allowed four earned runs on four hits while retiring just one batter and taking his second loss. The rubber-armed veteran has once again logged a hefty workload this season, logging 76 outings entering Monday's action and already establishing a new career high in wins (eight), while also tallying 21 holds and his first pair of saves since his sole Angels campaign in 2017.

Struggles Tuesday, takes loss
Petit (8-2) was tagged with the loss in relief Tuesday against Kansas City after allowing four runs on four hits across one-third of an inning, striking out one.
Impact
Petit entered the game in the sixth inning but was unable to tame the Royals lineup, and he departed the contest after allowing three straight singles and a three-run shot to Salvador Perez. The veteran reliever has enjoyed a decent season, but he seems to be moving in the wrong direction of late and has given up runs in four of his last five appearances. He owns a 3.79 ERA on the year, but that figure rises to 15.43 when factoring his five September appearances.

Working on scoreless streak
Petit, who secured his 19th hold with a scoreless inning during which he recorded a walk and a strikeout Sunday against the Yankees, has forged six consecutive scoreless appearance...
Impact
The veteran reliever is in the midst of another one of his dominant stretches, which has lowered his ERA and WHIP back down to 3.02 and 1.01, respectively. Petit also has three holds during the sample, keeping him within striking distance of eclipsing the career-high 29 he logged for Oakland back in 2019.

Notches 17th hold
Petit secured his 17th hold in a win over the White Sox on Thursday, firing a perfect seventh inning.
Impact
The veteran reliever had given up at least one earned run in three of the last five appearances, so Thursday's spotless effort was a welcome sight. Petit is still prone to the occasional stumble, but he's been a true fantasy asset by non-closer reliever standards, posting eight wins and a pair of saves alongside the 17 holds while already logging 60 appearances.

Nabs eighth win Friday
Petit (8-1) was credited with the win in an extra-innings victory over the Rangers on Friday, firing a perfect 11th inning during which he recorded a strikeout.
Impact
The right-hander fired nine of his 11 pitches for strikes in an ultra-efficient performance. Petit is on a nice roll at the moment, posting four straight scoreless outings and seven in his last eight appearance overall.

Solid thus far in second half
Petit has a 1.93 ERA across the 4.2 innings covering his four second-half appearances.
Impact
The high-volume reliever hasn't yet added to his impressive tally of 16 holds since the All-Star break and has blown one save opportunity in that span as well, but Petit continues to consistently limit damage. Petit also has already tied a career high with seven victories, and his solid stretch since the Midsummer Classic has served to coax his ERA back under 3.00 (2.98).
