After a strong 2024 campaign that was delayed due to offseason surgery to repair a torn labrum in his hip, New York Mets starter David Peterson is proving that his breakout last year was no fluke. With injuries crushing the rest of his rotation mates, Peterson was deservedly added to the NL's All-Star pitching staff.
Peterson has unquestionably pitched like an ace this season, and with only one year of team control remaining, it might be time for David Stearns to consider locking the southpaw up with an extension before his price tag inflates any further.
