2025 Fantasy Outlook
Peterson didn't make his 2024 debut until late May after recovering from offseason hip surgery. He wound up being a key piece in the rotation for a Mets team that made it to the NLCS, and the left-hander was particularly good down the stretch with a 2.41 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 58:20 K:BB over 67.1 frames during the final two months of the regular season. Like many pitchers on the Mets staff last season, Peterson embraced the sinker, using it as his fastball of choice for the first time in his career. While he sported a 50.1 percent ground ball rate, Peterson also watched his strikeout rate plummet from 26 percent to 19.8 percent. His velocity was fine, and Peterson can still be quite effective with a high ground ball rate if he can just get the strikeout rate back to even a league-average level. That said, with such a large gap between his xERA (4.59) and actual ERA (2.90), some level of regression from the southpaw looks to be a safe bet. Read Past Outlooks

Fans seven in Wednesday's loss
Peterson (7-5) took the loss Wednesday, giving up four runs on five hits and two walks over six innings as the Mets fell 4-1 to the Guardians. He struck out seven.
Analysis
The southpaw didn't pitch all that poorly, tossing 58 of 89 pitches for strikes, but the New York offense didn't get its first hit until the ninth inning, while Peterson served up homers to David Fry and Angel Martinez. Peterson has worked at least six innings in six straight outings, posting a 2.15 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 29:11 K:BB over 37.2 innings during that span. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start, which is scheduled to come at home next week against Atlanta.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
2020
2019
2018
Peterson was needed for 27 appearances (21 starts) for the Mets last season as the team battled numerous injury issues in their rotation. On the positive side, Peterson struck out 128 batters across his 111 innings, marking the second year in a row he's fanned well over a batter per frame. On the negative side, Peterson also had a walk rate over 10 percent for the second straight year and wound up finishing with an ERA over 5.00. The left-hander underwent left hip surgery in early November and a rough timetable has him returning around June. Pitchers that can miss bats and get groundballs like Peterson are usually ones you want to bet on. The southpaw has yet to throw strikes consistently in the big leagues, though, and isn't necessarily guaranteed a rotation spot once healthy.
