The Rays designated Peters for assignment Tuesday.
The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Steven Matz, whose signing was made official Tuesday. Peters went 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts during his brief time with the Rays in 2025 and slashed .266/.355/.429 at Triple-A Durham. He stands a good chance of passing through waivers unclaimed.

Rotowire
Peters is on the 7-day injured list at Double-A Montgomery with an oblique injury, Sam Dykstra of MiLB.com reports.
He last played April 18, so assuming it is an oblique strain, we should see Peters return to action around the end of May. The 23-year-old outfielder had a .368 OBP, two home runs and four steals in nine games before the injury.
