2024 Fantasy Outlook
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. Read Past Outlooks
RANKSFrom Preseason
Starting Wednesday
The Mets confirmed that Peterson (hip) will be activated from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Peterson underwent surgery for a torn labrum in his left hip this offseason and opened the season on the IL, but he'll make his long-awaited debut after he recently wrapped up a successful six-start rehab assignment in the minors during which he posted a 1.14 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 35:3 K:BB in 23.2 innings. The southpaw recorded a 5.03 ERA and 1.57 WHIP with a 128:50 K:BB across 27 appearances (21 starts) last season with the Mets.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Rotation frontrunner?
Peterson could slot in as a regular starter with teammate Jose Quintana expected to be out until July.
ANALYSIS
Dating back to the end of last season, Peterson was an incumbent favorite to rejoin the rotation, per Will Sammon of The Athletic. Justin Verlander, Max Scherzer, Kodai Senga and Carlos Carrasco are currently locks, but Peterson and Tylor Megill represent a thin cast to fill Quintana's spot. Peterson pitched to mixed results last season, but with a potent lineup to support him, he could be a decent source of wins and strikeouts.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2020
2019
2018
Peterson had middling results in 15 starts for the Mets in 2021, but he was much better as a swingman last season with a 3.83 ERA across 105.1 innings. The lefty started in 19 of his 28 appearances and was effective in both roles. He added a tick to his fastball and more heavily mixed in his off-speed pitches, which helped lead to a 27.8 percent strikeout rate. New York is looking to bolster its rotation during the offseason -- whether it's by re-signing Jacob deGrom or bringing in a new face remains to be seen -- but Peterson pitched well last year and should have a chance to lock down a rotation spot during spring training. He has yet to show he can produce consistently year-to-year but is trending toward fantasy utility after a strong 2022.
