David Peterson now pitching Friday for Mets

New York Mets left-hander David Peterson will start on Friday against the Texas Rangers.

What It Means:

Chris Bassitt was scratched from his scheduled start Friday and placed on the injured list without a designation, so Peterson has been bumped up to start. He has allowed two runs on 10 hits in his last two starts (12 1/2 innings) with 15 strikeouts and two walks.

numberFire’s models project Peterson for 32.2 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $8,100 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Peterson is throwing in the third-most pitcher friendly park on Friday.
