New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson is no longer guaranteed a spot in the Mets' rotation. Given the team's numerous offseason moves including signing Marcus Stroman to a qualifying offer, trading for Carlos Carrasco and Joey Lucchesi, and signing free-agent Taijuan Walker to a two-year deal, the Mets now have a number of SP arms. As a result, Mets' officials have reportedly discussed with Peterson the possibility of competing for a spot in the rotation despite his having finished second on the Mets' rotational depth chart in 2020. Peterson is coming off of a solid 2020 rookie campaign in which he posted a 3.44 ERA, a 1.21 WHIP, and a 40:24 K:BB in 49 2/3 innings pitched over nine starts. However, over the past three seasons in the majors and minors, Peterson has never pitched more than a total of 129 innings. As a result, even before Walker was signed, it was anticipated Peterson may be subjected to an innings limit in 2021. Now with Walker on board, even if Peterson wins the fifth rotation spot outright, the Mets may opt to eventually place him in a timeshare with Lucchesi to limit innings. Additionally, once Noah Syndergaard (elbow) returns from the injured list, playing time will become even more tenuous for Peterson. Peterson could ultimately end up in a swingman role (similar to Ross Stripling's role with the Dodgers before he was dealt to Toronto) irrespective of how he performs in the spring or early part of the 2021 campaign. This would, obviously, limit his fantasy appeal for the 2021 season. Managers rostering Peterson should be prepared to temper expectations given the possibility that Peterson will not win and/or hold a rotation spot for the duration of the season.--Nick Ritrivi - RotoBaller

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.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

New York Mets left-hander David Peterson picked up the win in a quality start over the Miami Marlins on Monday. Peterson allowed two runs on five hits over six innings while striking out nine and walking three in the win. The veteran lefty looked good in his first start of the season, allowing just a pair of solo homers while punching out nine batters after notching more than eight strikeouts just once across 21 starts in 2024. Peterson will look to keep it going in his next start, which is scheduled for Sunday at home against the Toronto Blue Jays.--Matt T - RotoBaller

New York Mets starting pitcher David Peterson will start Game 5 of the NLCS against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. Peterson has pitched four times this postseason and has been limited to three or fewer innings in each of those outings, meaning he will likely be on a very short leash again in a do-or-die game for the Mets. Despite the low innings total, Peterson has been solid in his outings, allowing just two earned runs over 8 ⅔ IP. He will need to be sharp again on Friday, as he will go up against Jack Flaherty in a must-win situation.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller

New York Mets left-handed pitcher David Peterson finished off the Milwaukee Brewers on Thursday, picking up the first save of his career in a 4-2 win in Game 3 of their Wild-Card series. Peterson was tasked with facing the bottom of the Brewers lineup, which included two lefties. After giving up a leadoff single, Peterson induced a strikeout and a double play to finish off the series. It was a gutsy inning for the lefty, who could be in line for a multi-inning role out of the bullpen in the NLDS or could end up making a start. Any way you slice it, Peterson is a terrific weapon to have for the Mets.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
