David Peterson gives up 10 runs Friday

David Peterson allowed 10 earned runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out three across 3.2 innings in Friday's 17-1 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact

After a strong debut with the Chicago Cubs in which he allowed two runs over 5.2 innings, his second start was one to forget. He threw a scoreless first inning before surrendering a three-run homer in the second, three runs in the third, and five more in the fourth. He owns a 6.75 ERA and 1.67 WHIP on the season and is tentatively scheduled to make his next start on Thursday against the Orioles.

David Peterson solid in Cubs debut Saturday

David Peterson gave up two runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two batters across 5.2 innings in Saturday's 8-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers.

Fantasy Impact

Peterson was traded to the Chicago Cubs this week after struggling to a 6.09 ERA and 1.65 WHIP across eight starts and 16 appearances with the New York Mets this season. Although he surrendered a leadoff home run to Jackson Chourio in his Cubs debut, he quickly settled in and allowed just one more run the rest of the way. He delivered a quality outing, earning his fourth win of the season. Peterson is scheduled to make his next start on Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals.

David Peterson to make Cubs debut Saturday

David Peterson will make his Cubs debut on Saturday against the Brewers.

Fantasy Impact

Peterson has been added to the Chicago 26-man roster to replace Phil Maton, who hit the injured list. Peterson has struggled this season with the Mets, as he currently holds a 6.09 ERA in 68 innings pitched. A change in scenery could help the lefty, who pitched to a 2.90 ERA in 121 innings in 2024.

David Peterson being traded to Cubs

David Peterson is being traded to the Chicago Cubs.

Fantasy Impact

Peterson will be heading to the NL Central, with the return to the Mets currently unknown. The lefthander has struggled this season, holding a 6.09 ERA with 63 strikeouts in 68 innings pitched. He has come out of the bullpen and started games for the Mets, so it remains to be determined how he will be utilized in Chicago.

David Peterson struggles in loss to Phillies

David Peterson took the loss Sunday night against the Phillies after allowing four runs over four innings. He struck out five and walked four. Peterson issued back-to-back walks to begin the game and later allowed a three-run homer to Kyle Schwarber in the second inning.

Fantasy Impact

Peterson now owns a 6.09 ERA and did not strengthen his case for additional starts, though the Mets are currently thin on alternatives.
