David Peterson DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson allowed two earned runs and five hits over 7 2/3 innings in his team's 5-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The veteran walked two and struck out seven to secure his fourth consecutive quality start and third win of 2025 (3-2). Peterson was yet again solid -- as he has been all season -- notching his tenth straight outing with three earned runs or fewer. It hasn't always been efficient, but he was slightly better with walks this time around after surrendering three or more across his last three appearances. The Oregon product will carry a strong 2.79 ERA and (slightly inflated )1.28 WHIP into an enticing start against the visiting Colorado Rockies late next week.

The New York Mets have left-hander David Peterson (illness) lined up to make his next start this Saturday against the Athletics at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento. Peterson wasn't feeling great in his last start on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays, when he allowed an earned run on three hits while walking five and striking out three for a no-decision in 4 2/3 innings of work. The 29-year-old southpaw should be feeling much better by Saturday and will have a great matchup against the A's on the road. Peterson had a quality start and his first win of the season in his first outing of the year on March 31 against the division-rival Miami Marlins, allowing two earned runs on five hits (two solo homers) while walking three and striking out nine. Fantasy managers will be hoping for something similar in his third outing this weekend.

New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson (undisclosed) was removed from Sunday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with a potential injury. The southpaw threw four scoreless innings allowing only two hits. However, Peterson appeared to tweak his back in the fifth inning and that's where it unraveled for him. He walked two batters and hit another batter before Mets manager Carlos Mendoza removed him from the contest. If he's fine, Peterson would be in line to start against the Athletics next week. Fantasy managers should keep an eye out for an update following Sunday's game.
