Guardians optioned RHP Austin Peterson to Minor League camp.

Peterson posted a 3.21 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, and 127/40 K/BB ratio in 145 2/3 innings split between Double-A and Triple-A last season. The 26-year-old will likely start the season at Triple-A, but the Guardians are not settled on that yet, it seems. The team also reassigned RHPs Tanner Burns, Trenton Denholm, Tommy Mace, Aaron Davenport, and C Cameron Barstad to Minor League camp.
