Padres activated LHP Wandy Peralta from the bereavement list.

The 34-year-old southpaw rejoins the Padres’ bullpen for Sunday’s series finale against the Royals. Peralta has been a key cog in the club’s bullpen this season, compiling a 2.23 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and a 31/19 K/BB ratio across 48 1/3 innings of work. Ron Marinaccio was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Griffin Canning will make a bulk relief appearance on Saturday against the Dodgers.

Canning will enter the contest after lefty opener Wandy Peralta tangles with the top of the Los Angeles order. The 30-year-old holds a lackluster 7.09 ERA across 47 innings this season in his San Diego debut.

Griffin Canning will make a bulk relief appearance on Tuesday against the Braves.

It’ll be Wandy Peralta getting the nod as San Diego’s opener with Canning to follow in a bulk role. The 30-year-old limited the Cardinals to just one run over 4 1/3 innings behind an opener his last time out. The decision is a slight boost to his fantasy appeal as it gives him better odds of lasting into the middle innings and qualifying for a win.

Lucas Giolito will make a bulk relief appearance on Sunday against the Rangers.

Wandy Peralta draws the starting assignment as San Diego’s opener. It’ll be Giolito’s second consecutive bulk relief outing since mid-June. The 31-year-old has compiled a serviceable 4.56 ERA across 25 2/3 innings during his Padres debut. He’s tough to trust as a fantasy option since he’s struggled to work deep into outings and has posted a 16/21 K/BB ratio so far.

Wandy Peralta worked a scoreless ninth to earn a save versus the Mariners on Saturday.

Peralta gets his first save with Mason Miller unavailable. The 34-year-old did put the tying run at the plate after allowing a hit and a walk, but he was able to escape without any damage. Peralta is a very solid reliever, but there are too many options ahead of him to expect many — if any — more save chances.

Wandy Peralta has exercised his $4.45 million player option to remain with the Padres.

Peralta had a fine 3.14 ERA in 71 2/3 innings last season, but he decided against taking his chances on the open market. Peralta’s four-year deal with the Padres included three player options, and he’s now exercised the first two of those. He’d again be in line for $4.45 million if he sticks around in 2027.
