Mets Move David Peterson to Bullpen, Promote Sean Manaea

AI-synthesized · Bias removed · Facts only

The last-place New York Mets are making a change to their pitching rotation. The team has decided to move David Peterson to the bullpen. In his place, the Mets have tabbed fellow left-hander Sean Manaea to pitch.

This decision serves as a promotion for Sean Manaea. Throughout the current season, Manaea has been used mainly in long relief and mop-up duty. This usage followed his signing of a contract in December 2024, which was a three-year deal worth $75 million.

The move to the bullpen comes as David Peterson has struggled recently. While he was an All-Star in 2025, he has faded in the second half of the season. His performance record this year stands at 3-5. Additionally, Peterson has recorded a 5.57 ERA. The team hopes these adjustments will address their pitching needs as they remain in last place.
