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.
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.
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.
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.
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).
