Shines in Cubs debut
Peterson (4-6) notched the win Saturday against the Brewers, allowing two runs on five hits and no walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out two.
Analisi
Making his Cubs debut, Peterson immediately entered the rotation after bouncing around as a swingman with the Mets. The 30-year-old left-hander fell one out shy of what could've been his first quality start of the year, but it was still his longest outing so far. Peterson, who entered Saturday with a high groundball rate of 52.9 percent, could benefit from the elite defense of Nico Hoerner and Dansby Swanson in the Cubs' middle infield going forward. He'll carry a 5.86 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 65:30 K:BB over 73.2 innings into his next scheduled outing against the Cardinals.

Dealt to Cubs
The Cubs acquired Peterson from the Mets on Wednesday in exchange for infielder Cole Mathis (undisclosed), Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Analisi
Peterson had endured a rough season with the Mets, turning in a 6.09 ERA and 1.65 WHIP in 68 innings across 16 appearances (eight starts). However, the Cubs will gladly take all the rotation arms they can get at this point, as Edward Cabrera (hamstring) and Ben Brown (neck) became the fifth and sixth Chicago starting pitchers to land on the injured list Wednesday. Peterson is expected to provide immediate aid to the rotation and could make his first start with the Cubs as soon as Friday at Milwaukee, after he threw 79 pitches Sunday in his final appearance with the Mets.

Roughed up early in sixth loss
Peterson (3-6) took the loss Sunday, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks over four innings against the Phillies. He struck out five.
Analisi
Peterson was ambushed early, as he gave up two runs in the first inning before surrendering a towering, three-run homer to Kyle Schwarber in the second frame. Sunday marked the southpaw's first start since May 26 as he has been moved in and out of the rotation this season with poor results across the board. Peterson owns a 6.09 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 63:30 K:BB across 68 innings (16 appearances) and is tentatively lined up for a rematch with the Phillies next weekend, if the Mets give him another turn in the rotation.
