Manager Carlos Mendoza said Friday that Peterson (hip) is roughly one week away from beginning a rehab assignment, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson has been sidelined all season after undergoing hip surgery in November. He will need to spend a significant amount of time in the minors as he builds up to a starter's workload, but he will have plenty of room to do so, as he is not eligible to return from the IL until May 27.

Peterson (hip) began throwing bullpen sessions in March and is hopeful to return from the 60-day injured list when first eligible May 27, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After undergoing surgery Nov. 6 to repair a torn labrum in his left hip, Peterson was projected to require 6-to-7 months of recovery time, so the Mets felt comfortable stashing him on the 60-day IL to begin the season to clear up a 40-man roster spot for another player. Peterson won't be ready to pitch in games at any point this spring, but he seems to be making steady progress in his recovery from hip surgery. Now that he's reached the point in his rehab where he's throwing bullpen sessions, Peterson could soon face hitters in live batting practice sessions and simulated games. After that, Peterson would then likely be sent out on an extended minor-league rehab assignment as he looks to build back up to a starter's workload.

Peterson (hip) was placed on the 60-day injured list Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The left-hander is expected to miss the first two months of the season as he continues his rehab from November hip surgery, so it's not a surprise he'll begin the campaign on the injured list. Peterson had a 5.03 ERA in 27 appearances (21 starts) last season and likely won't be guaranteed a rotation spot once healthy.

Peterson (hip) signed a one-year, $2.15 million contract with the Mets on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson underwent hip surgery in November and is expected to miss roughly the first two months of the season. Despite his procedure and 5.03 ERA from a season ago, Peterson will receive a $1.4 million raise. Given the offseason additions of Sean Manaea and Adrian Houser, Peterson's rotation spot is far from guaranteed once he's able to return.

Peterson underwent surgery Monday to repair the labrum in his left hip, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Mets noted that the procedure usually takes 6-to-7 months to recover from, which means Peterson could miss roughly the first two months of next season. It's unclear how long the hip has been bothering Peterson, but it's possible it contributed to an up-and-down 2023 season which saw the lefty hold a 5.03 ERA and 128:50 K:BB over 111 innings. The Mets had already figured to be in the market for rotation help this offseason, and this news only reinforces that notion.

Peterson did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over four innings against the Phillies. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson continues to rack up impressive strikeout totals, logging 37 in his last five starts (26.2 innings). However, he'd wind up with a no-decision Thursday, allowing a pair of runs in the first inning and another two in the third, as the left-hander remains winless since July 27. Overall, Peterson is 3-8 with a 5.37 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 120:46 K:BB across 104 innings this season. He'll likely make one more start this season, currently scheduled for next week against Miami.

Peterson did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against the Reds. He struck out 10.

EDGE Analysis

The 10 strikeouts matched a career high for Peterson, who has achieved that total on three other occasions. He pitched well but a two-run homer by Spencer Steer in the 6th inning was Peterson's ultimate undoing as he finished one out shy of a quality start. He lowered his season ERA to 5.52 and has 113 strikeouts in 100 innings. His next start is scheduled to take place during the Mets' upcoming road trip to Miami.

Peterson (3-8) took the loss Saturday, allowing three runs on eight hits and one walk over six innings against Minnesota. He struck out eight.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson hit Donovan Solano with a pitch and then gave up a single to Jorge Polanco to open the bottom of the first before fanning the next three batters to get out of the jam. However, he would go on to allow three runs over the next two frames, which would ultimately decide the contest. The lefty has now allowed at least three runs and seven hits in three of his last four outings and has not recorded a win since July 27. On a positive note, he does hold a healthy 20:4 K:BB over his last three starts.

Peterson did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing four runs on seven hits over four innings against the Mariners. He struck out four and did not issue any walks.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson surrendered a solo homer in the first inning and two more runs in the third. He was removed with no outs in the fifth and a runner on base who would come around to score, giving Seattle a 4-3 lead and putting the southpaw on track for a loss until New York staged a late comeback. In six starts since rejoining the Mets' rotation Aug. 4, Peterson has posted a 4.15 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and pedestrian 27:16 K:BB across 26 innings. He tentatively lines up for a road matchup with Minnesota next weekend.

Peterson did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing a run on three hits and three walks over seven innings in a 3-2 victory over the Angels. He struck out eight.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson matched a season high with eight strikeouts Sunday while shutting out the Angels until the seventh inning. It was an encouraging outing from the 27-year-old Peterson, who allowed four runs in just 4.2 innings in his last start against Atlanta. The southpaw lowered his ERA to 5.23 on the season with a 1.60 WHIP and 91:41 K:BB across 84.1 innings, including 16 starts. Peterson will look to build on his performance in his next outing, currently scheduled as a home matchup next week against Seattle.
