Photo by Mark Goldman/Icon Sportswire via Peterson struggled once again yesterday. Before starting their three-game series with the Rays in Queens, the Mets optioned left-handed starter David Peterson to Triple-A Syracuse and called up fellow left-handed pitcher Josh Walker to replace him on the active roster. Peterson struggled yet again in a start against the Nationals yesterday, and he now has an 8.08 ERA at the major league level this season. Had the Mets’ rotation been entirely healthy over the past several weeks, Peterson might not have seen any time on the big...

The Mets’ rotation is close to being (mostly) whole, which is especially significant because David Peterson does not look particularly close to being the valuable arm he was last year.
New York Post May 15, 2023
Monday afternoon presented the Mets with a chance to at least finish this stretch (or is it stench?) with a winning series, but they punted that opportunity into the Potomac in a 10-3 loss to the Nationals.

Making the start in place of Max Scherzer, David Peterson struggled, allowing four runs, while not making it out of the fourth inning. The Reds were able to tack on from there, building a 7-1 lead.

Sam Greene/The Enquirer / USA TODAY NETWORK The Mets nearly came back from a 7-1 deficit but fell short. The Mets nearly came back from a six-run deficit against the Reds in their series opener in Cincinnati, but they did not. Instead, they lost yet another baseball game, this time by a 7-6 score. David Peterson was called up before the game to fill in for Max Scherzer, who was supposed to make the start but was scratched with neck spasms. Peterson picked up right where he left off before the Mets sent him to Triple-A Syracuse earlier this month, as he gave up four runs...

Lon Horwedel-USA TODAY Sports David Peterson has been recalled from Triple-A to start in Scherzer’s place. Max Scherzer has been scratched from tonight’s start due to neck spasms, the Mets announced this afternoon. David Peterson was scheduled to start tonight for Triple-A Syracuse, but instead was flown to Cincinnati in case Scherzer was not able to pitch. David Peterson was then officially added to the roster to take the start in Scherzer’s stead. In a somewhat surprising corresponding move, the Mets placed Jimmy Yacabonis on the 15-day injured list,...

Triple-A: Syracuse Mets (14-15) LEHIGH 6, SYRACUSE 4 (BOX) Turns out “pitch better” isn’t really advice. David Peterson continued to struggle, giving up seven hits and five walks in his first Triple-A start. That wasted a double-dong day for DJ Stewart, who launched his third and fourth homers of the season (both solo shots). Ronny Mauricio had a pair of hits in the loss.

The Mets made a few roster moves this afternoon, as the team has optioned left-handed starting pitcher David Peterson to Triple-A Syracuse, placed left-handed reliever Brooks Raley on the injured list with left elbow inflammation, recalled right-handed reliever John Curtiss from Syrcause, and activated right-handed reliever Adam Ottavino from the paternity list. Peterson would have opened the season in Syracuse if not for injuries to the Mets’ other starting...

Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports Your Saturday morning dose of New York Mets and MLB news, notes, and links. Meet the Mets The Mets—facing a weekend filled with poor weather—played in the rain last night to begin their series against the Atlanta Braves. David Peterson started and held the Braves off the board for four innings before surrendering four runs in the fifth—including a three-run home run given up to Matt Olson. The offense, meanwhile, couldn’t get much of anything going against Max Fried, and after five innings were concluded the umpires called...
