Summary
The Cubs just traded for lefty David Peterson, hoping a fresh start and their elite defense will revive his All-Star form after a rough Mets stint. With a brutal 6.09 ERA and shaky role, Peterson’s high groundball rate pairs perfectly with Chicago’s top-ranked defense — a key reason for the move. Manager Counsell is optimistic as Peterson prepares for his debut against Milwaukee, giving the Cubs a much-needed boost to their shaky rotation and their slim wild card hopes.
