Peterson Heads to Cubs in Trade
Description
David Peterson, the Mets’ All-Star pitcher with a struggling 6.09 ERA, is headed to Chicago after a surprise trade that sends infielder Cole Mathis to New York. The Cubs, desperate for pitching depth amid injuries to Cabrera and Brown, are banking on Peterson’s ground-ball tendencies and the team’s elite infield defense to spark a comeback. Manager Craig Counsell confirmed Peterson will start Saturday against the Brewers — a venue he knows well — as the Cubs look to turn things around. Peterson, though shocked by the move, is focused on the fresh start, already packing up his life for the transition. Meanwhile, reliever Phil Maton joins the injured list with knee tendinitis, hoping to return strong for the second half.
