David Peterson Shines in Mets' Dominant Win
by Chase Davis | Mets Correspondent | Fri, Aug 9th 8:18am EDT
David Peterson turned in a solid performance in the Mets' 9-1 victory over the Rockies on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed just one earned run on four hits and three walks while striking out five over five innings. This outing continues a season where Peterson has maintained a strong 3.34 ERA, though his 1.42 WHIP suggests he's often skating on thin ice with baserunners. His moderate strikeout rate of 7.2 K/9 won't blow anyone away, but his ability to secure wins, now tallying seven on the season, keeps him relevant in fantasy formats that reward victories. The high BABIP and FIP indicate some potential regression, so fantasy managers should enjoy the good starts but remain cautious.
