David Peterson Out 6-7 Months After Hip Surgery
1 year agoNew York Mets left-hander David Peterson (hip) underwent surgery to fix a labrum tear in his left hip on Monday, according to the team. It's an injury that typically takes six to seven months to return from, which means Peterson is unlikely to be ready until May or early June of 2024. The 28-year-old southpaw certainly won't be ready for the start of the regular season next year. His hip injury could have contributed to an inconsistent 2023 campaign in which he went 3-8 with a 5.03 ERA (4.34 FIP) and 1.57 WHIP while walking 50 and striking out a career-high 128 batters in 111 innings over 27 appearances (21 starts) in his fourth big-league season in New York.
