The Boston Red Caps released P Joe Peters (31-4.9) today. The most feared left-hander of the past 5 seasons, Peters has a career record of 155-89 (.635). He tore his triceps muscle right before the season started and missed 3 months. Since coming back, he is 2-4 with a 4.98 ERA. In his last start, he gave up 13 runs, walking 7 batters and striking out 2. He still seems to throw as hard as ever, but the pitches are straight now when they used to have a lot of movement and they don't appear to go where he intended.
