Mon Sep 1602:48David Peterson Pitches Into Eighth In Dominant Effort
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson put together another excellent effort on Sunday, tossing 7 one-run frames against a great Philadelphia Phillies lineup. Peterson scattered four hits and a walk while striking out six in this one. He wasn't able to earn the victory, as Cristopher Sanchez also threw a gem, but it was a fantastic outing nonetheless. The 29-year-old hasn't been talked about much in fantasy circles, but he has had an outstanding season. He has nine wins, a 2.85 ERA, a 1.31 WHIP, and 89 strikeouts over 110 IP. If he had been in the rotation for the full season, those numbers are easily must-start status. That said, he has a tough matchup against these same Phillies next weekend, so exercise caution with him.

Wed Sep 400:31David Peterson Fans Season-High 11 Hitters In Tuesday's Win
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson continued his strong season in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox. Peterson improved to 9-1, allowing one run on six hits and a walk with a season-high 11 strikeouts over six innings of work. The 29-year-old has found great success overall with a 2.75 ERA and a 1.31 WHIP in 17 starts and 98 1/3 IP. Oddly, his strikeouts have dropped considerably from previous seasons with a 7.41 K/9 rate. Overall, Peterson has provided surprising fantasy value this season. He is lined up for a decent matchup in his next start at the Blue Jays.

Sun Aug 2509:12David Peterson Improves To 8-1 On Saturday
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson tossed 7 1/3 innings of one-run ball in Saturday's 7-1 victory over the Padres, allowing five hits and two walks while striking out two on the way to earning his eighth win of the season. It was the fifth consecutive start in which the southpaw has allowed two runs or less, which has also been the case in 13 of his 15 starts this season. That has led to an 8-1 record with a sterling 2.85 ERA (4.20 FIP). However, the lefty also has a 1.32 WHIP and just an 8.0% K-BB%, so it hasn't all been great for fantasy purposes. Peterson gets a favorable matchup next time out, which will come against the White Sox in Chicago next Friday.

Tue Jul 1612:03David Peterson Back From Paternity List
The New York Mets activated left-hander David Peterson from the paternity list on Monday. Peterson landed on the paternity list late last week and missed the team's three-game series to conclude the first half of the season against the visiting Colorado Rockies. The 28-year-old southpaw is now back with the team, though, although it's unclear if his first start of the second half will come this weekend against the division-rival Miami Marlins. He has only made eight starts for the Mets in 2024, but Peterson has looked good when on the big-league mound, going 4-0 with a 3.09 ERA (4.54 FIP) and 1.42 WHIP with 32 strikeouts and 19 walks in 43 2/3 innings pitched. However, Peterson has never had a walk rate below 10% in his career and he's currently sporting a career-low 16.8% strikeout rate, so regression could be coming in the second half if he stays in New York's rotation.

Fri Jul 1221:34David Peterson Placed On Paternity List
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson was placed on the paternity list on Friday. Right-hander Eric Orze was called up from Triple-A Syracuse to take Peterson's place. There's no worry about Peterson missing any of his scheduled starts here as the lefty just pitched six innings of shutout ball on Thursday against the Washington Nationals on the front end of All-Star break weekend. It's actually a positive move for the Mets' bullpen being able to add Orze, who has only appeared in one major league game this season but has a 3.76 ERA in 38 innings in Triple-A Syracuse. Fantasy managers should expect Orze to be brought back to the minors after the All-Star break and Peterson will look to have a solid second half, albeit with the addition of his new dad powers.

Fri Jul 1208:52David Peterson Stays Undefeated
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson earned his fourth quality start of the season after tossing six scoreless innings versus the division rival Washington Nationals on Thursday. Peterson allowed four hits with three walks and five strikeouts to improve to 4-0 on the season. Peterson has been a popular sleeper over the past few seasons and it finally looks like he is reaching his potential during his brief time in the big leagues this season. For the season, Peterson sports a healthy 3.09 ERA in eight starts. Peterson has been able to get out of a lot of jams this season as his 1.42 WHIP is not particularly something for managers to be excited about. Regardless, Peterson's recent success has made him a viable streaming option with more potential moving forward in the second half.

Tue Jul 209:47David Peterson Gets No-Decision Despite Solid Effort
New York Mets pitcher David Peterson pitched well enough to earn a win yet finished with a no-decision in Monday's 9-7 loss at the Washington Nationals. Peterson recorded his third quality start after allowing two earned runs on seven hits over 6 1/3 innings with two strikeouts and a walk. Peterson is 3-0 with a 3.51 ERA and 1.44 WHIP, striking out 22, and walking 14 in 33 1/3 innings. Fantasy managers looking for wins might consider adding Peterson, but his overall numbers make him risky. However, his next start is scheduled for Saturday at the Pittsburgh Pirates, making him a good, but not great, streaming option.

Fri Jun 2113:07Luis Severino Moved Up To Sunday, David Peterson Pushed Back
The New York Mets have tweaked their starting rotation slightly, moving right-hander Luis Severino up to Sunday's contest at Wrigley Field against the Cubs, with left-hander David Peterson being pushed back. Severino will now get a better matchup, as he was previously slated to start against the first-place New York Yankees on Tuesday. Peterson will now likely start early next week in a tougher matchup against the Bombers. Severino allowed a season-high six earned runs on eight hits while walking one and striking out one in 6 1/3 innings his last time out against the Rangers. Overall, he's been serviceable with a 3.52 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 84 1/3 innings and 14 starts, but he's also carrying a career-low 17.4% strikeout rate. Peterson is a perfect 3-0 with a 3.97 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with only 12 K's in 22 2/3 innings over his four starts for the Mets in 2024.

Sun May 2613:45David Peterson Scheduled To Start Wednesday
New York Mets pitcher David Peterson (hip) is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Peterson has not pitched in the majors yet this year as he was recovering from offseason hip surgery. The 28-year-old looked solid during his rehab stint where he made six starts across three different levels of the minor leagues. While that was encouraging, Peterson posted a dismal 3-8 record to go along with a 5.03 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 128:50 K:BB across 27 appearances in 2023. He may eventually offer some streaming upside to fantasy managers but it will not come on Wednesday against the potent Dodgers offense.

Tue May 1401:19David Peterson Moving To Double-A During Rehab
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson (hip) will move his minor-league rehab assignment to Double-A Binghamton this week. Peterson has looked good so far in three rehab games with Low-A St. Lucie, allowing just two hits in 8 2/3 scoreless innings. Manager Carlos Mendoza said Peterson could be ready to return from the 60-day injured list as early as May 27, the first day he's eligible to be reinstated. The 28-year-old southpaw is trying to make a return from offseason hip surgery, so he'll be making his 2024 debut whenever he gets into a game. At the moment, the Mets' starting rotation is full and healthy, so there's a chance that Peterson is sent back to the minor leagues when he comes off the injured list. The former 20th overall pick in 2017 out of Oregon went 3-8 last year with a 5.03 ERA and 1.57 WHIP with 50 walks and a career-high 128 strikeouts in 111 innings over 27 appearances (21 starts).

Wed Mar 2000:36David Peterson Throws Fourth Bullpen Session Tuesday
New York Mets pitcher David Peterson (hip) threw his fourth bullpen session of spring training on Tuesday, tossing 15 pitches. "I feel like a real player again," the 28-year-old said. "It feels different, but it feels different in a better way." Peterson underwent surgery to fix a labrum tear in his left hip last November and is trending toward a late May return. Had he been healthy, he may have had a chance to earn a rotation spot to start 2024. Peterson has been erratic throughout his career but has compiled several successful seasons. Given the lack of depth in the Mets rotation, Peterson could become a relevant fantasy name once he returns to the team.

Wed Nov 8 202316:10David Peterson Out 6-7 Months After Hip Surgery
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson (hip) underwent surgery to fix a labrum tear in his left hip on Monday, according to the team. It's an injury that typically takes six to seven months to return from, which means Peterson is unlikely to be ready until May or early June of 2024. The 28-year-old southpaw certainly won't be ready for the start of the regular season next year. His hip injury could have contributed to an inconsistent 2023 campaign in which he went 3-8 with a 5.03 ERA (4.34 FIP) and 1.57 WHIP while walking 50 and striking out a career-high 128 batters in 111 innings over 27 appearances (21 starts) in his fourth big-league season in New York.

Thu Sep 21 202314:23David Peterson Looking To Rack Up More Punchouts Thursday
New York Mets pitcher David Peterson will be in search of more strikeouts on Thursday when he takes the ball on the road against the Philadelphia Phillies. Peterson tossed 5 2/3 innings of two-run ball against the Reds his last time out but also racked up a hefty 10 strikeouts in the process. The left-hander hasn't had a great season as he sports a 5.22 ERA across 25 outings (19 starts) but his 4.45 FIP, 3.97 SIERA, 55.4% ground-ball rate, and 25.3% K% report he has been far better than his surface ERA suggests. However, he has been battered for a 7.35 ERA on the road where he also sports a 1.84 HR/9 versus a tidy 3.18 ERA and 0.88 HR/9 at Citi Field this season.

Fri Aug 4 202308:48David Peterson Making His 12th Start Friday
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson is starting Friday's game against Dean Kremer and the Baltimore Orioles. The 27-year-old has appeared in 17 games for the Mets this season, posting an ugly 5.92 ERA and 1.62 WHIP, but is still sporting an above-average 24.4% strikeout rate. After the club shipped starters Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer elsewhere, Peterson should have a long leash in the rotation to see if he can start showing results more like his 2022 numbers (3.83 ERA over 105 2/3 innings). Fantasy owners can continue to roster the fourth-year player in deeper formats but should probably stash him on the bench against a solid Baltimore offense.

Sun Jun 25 202313:35David Peterson Will Start Tuesday For The Mets
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson will start on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Brewers. Peterson is starting in place of Tylor Megill, who was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on June 22. Peterson struggled mightily as he began the year in the Mets' rotation. Over eight starts, he logged an ugly 1-6 record, 8.08 ERA, 1.74 WHIP, and 45:14 K/BB ratio over 39 innings. He's looked better in the minors lately but there's no streaming appeal here in mixed fantasy leagues.

Tue May 9 202315:23David Peterson To Make Spot Start Tuesday
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson was officially recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday in order to make a spot start against the Cincinnati Reds. Right-hander Max Scherzer (neck, shoulder) was scratched from his start due to neck spasms. If Scherzer is forced to the injured list, Peterson could make more starts in New York's rotation if he fares well in a good matchup against Cincy. Fantasy managers should be wary of rolling the dice on him as a streamer on Tuesday despite the good matchup, as the 27-year-old southpaw has surrendered 25 earned runs on 38 hits while walking 10 and fanning 36 in 30 2/3 innings over his six starts in 2023.

Tue May 9 202312:20David Peterson Could Make Spot Start Tuesday
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson was supposed to start on Tuesday for Triple-A Syracuse, but that's no longer the case. He is traveling to Cincinnati in case the Mets need an emergency spot starter. Max Scherzer (shoulder) is currently listed as Tuesday's starter against the Reds, but he's still not 100 percent healthy. The 27-year-old Peterson hasn't fared well in his six starts for the Mets in 2023, but he could be a sneaky streaming play in deeper leagues if he gets the start for Scherzer on Tuesday. In 30 2/3 innings at the big-league level so far this year, Peterson has a 7.34 ERA (5.37 FIP), 1.56 WHIP, 10 walks and 36 strikeouts.

Mon Mar 27 202317:16David Peterson Earns Final Rotation Spot
New York Mets left-hander David Peterson has earned the final starting rotation spot for the Mets to open the 2023 regular season, according to sources. Peterson beat out Tylor Megill for the final rotation spot after it was announced that lefty Jose Quintana will be out until at least July with a rib-cage stress fracture. Peterson didn't allow a single run in 12 Grapefruit League innings and struck out 13, but he also walked eight hitters. The 27-year-old southpaw will be a target in the later rounds of deep-mixed leagues if you have yet to draft, and he'll also make for a cheap DFS streamer in the right matchups. Peterson posted a 3.83 ERA (3.64 FIP), 1.33 WHIP and career-high 27.8 percent strikeout rate in 105 2/3 innings over 28 outings (19 starts) for the Mets in 2022.

Thu Mar 9 202319:48David Peterson Throws On Thursday
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson (foot) was able to face live hitters during a batting practice session on Thursday. This is good news after Peterson took a comebacker off the foot last weekend. The hope is that he won't suffer any setbacks and can get back on the mound soon. He's expected to compete with Tylor Megill for a spot in the starting rotation. The Mets are going to be without Jose Quintana (rib) to begin the season, so someone will need to step up.

Sun Mar 5 202317:49David Peterson Considered Day-To-Day
New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson (foot) is considered day-to-day after getting hit by a comebacker during Saturday's Spring Training contest. The left-hander underwent X-rays and had a CT scan done as well. Peterson was able to avoid any fractures and is dealing with a left foot contusion. The 27-year-old will probably rest for a few days, but should return at some point next week.
