Peterson (7-1) allowed an unearned run on three hits and four walks while striking out four over 6.1 innings to earn the win Wednesday over the Athletics.

This marked Peterson's sixth time going at least six innings this season, and it was one of his strongest performances this year. The one concern that remains is his high walk rate -- he's issued at least three walks in five of his last six starts and has a 4.3 BB/9 this season. Peterson has managed to post a 3.04 ERA despite a 1.39 WHIP and 56:34 K:BB through 71 innings over 13 starts on the year. He's projected for a tougher home start versus the Orioles early next week.
