Mets’ David Peterson breaks foot in ‘freak’ injury while on IL
NY Post
As the Mets and their fans await Jacob deGrom’s next step, David Peterson’s last step was most painful.
The Mets starter, who already was out until at least mid-August with an oblique strain, felt a pop in his foot while walking Friday, manager Luis Rojas said. Peterson will require surgery after sustaining a Jones fracture of the fifth metatarsal on his right foot. The manager called it a “freak” and “shocking” injury that prompted the Mets to move Peterson from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL. It also may mean he will miss the rest of the season, although Rojas would not go that far.More Related News
