Look, I know he's not many people's idea of a great pitcher but he's young and plenty of promise. Another hole for Stearns to fill

Hope he has a full recovery.

That's his push-off leg. Maybe it impacted his delivery.

"I know he's not many people's idea of a great pitcher" has me dying every time I read it.

According to that timeframe, he'll be able to return by May or June. Not ideal, but it could have been a lot worse.

Well, until this news, he was the Mets' #3 pitcher.

Oh I know, man. That line was just so funny for me. I'd want that on my tombstone if I'm Peterson.



Here lies David Peterson

Has me wondering why he waited, the season has been over for 6 weeks (actually more if you're being realistic).

Re: David Peterson surgery

Stearns said something about how they thought it might just be soreness from the season that might heal on its own, but they saw that it wasn't improving so they opted for the surgery.

Re: David Peterson surgery

Diagnositics is a tricky game, and it makes me wonder that, if there's so much guesswork in caring for multi-million-dollar athletes, how much can I rely on any doctor telling me what's going on inside of me?
