New York Mets: David Peterson feels ready to contribute at the major league level

The New York Mets‘ rotation depth got a significant hit when Noah Syndergaard was lost for the 2020 season with elbow ligament surgery. Right now, Jacob deGrom is the unquestioned ace, followed by Marcus Stroman, Steven Matz, Rick Porcello and Michael Wacha.

Beyond those five, the Mets have more questions than answers. However, a bright part of the team future, and maybe the present, is left-handed pitching prospect David Peterson. He impressed in the original spring training with his poise and calmness on the mound, and he is once again opening eyes at the New York Mets’ summer camp.
