David Peterson drawing trade interest

David Peterson is drawing trade interest, and the New York Mets are open to moving him.

Fantasy Impact

Peterson started a career-high 30 games in 2025, posting a 4.22 ERA, 1.37 WHIP, and 150 strikeouts across 168.2 innings. He was dominant in the first half of the season, recording a 3.06 ERA and 1.23 WHIP, but struggled after the break with a 6.39 ERA and 1.62 WHIP. According to Will Sammon, the Mets could look to move him in a “need-for-need” type of trade. However, it remains unclear if a deal will materialize, as the asking price for Peterson is believed to be high.

David Peterson Strikes Out Eight but Falls Short Against Phillies

David Peterson allowed three earned runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out eight over five innings in Thursday's loss to the Phillies.

Fantasy Impact

After today’s performance, Peterson's season stats include a 3.88 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and a 9-5 record across 28 starts. It's been a solid season for the veteran lefty, but he's starting to fall apart at the end. Since the trade deadline, he's pitched 41.1 innings with a 6.53 ERA, 1.54 WHIP, and a still impressive 10.2 K/9. He's got three quality starts in that span and none since August 19. He'll look to get back on track next week against the Padres.
