Limits Blue Jays in no-decision
Peterson did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Blue Jays, allowing one run on seven hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings.
Analiz
Peterson held his own Thursday in a pitching duel with Dylan Cease, who fired seven scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts. His only run allowed came in the first inning on a disengagement violation, which was an unfortunate sequence given that he ended the frame just two pitches later. Peterson then blanked Toronto over his final four innings despite consistently pitching through traffic. Over his last five starts, the left-hander has surrendered just six runs (five earned) across 28.2 innings, lowering his ERA from 6.75 to 5.35 during that stretch. He also owns a 1.50 WHIP and 88:43 K:BB across 106 innings this season.

Will start Thursday
Peterson is slated to start Thursday's game against Toronto at Wrigley Field, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.
Analiz
Though trade-deadline pickups Kevin Gausman and Clay Holmes (fibula) are slated to make their first starts for the Cubs this weekend, Peterson will keep his spot in the rotation for now. The left-hander tied his season high with eight strikeouts in his most recent start last Saturday against the Yankees and owns a 4.36 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 22:10 K:BB in 33 innings over his first six starts with the Cubs since being acquired from the Mets on June 25.

Strikes out eight in no-decision
Peterson did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 5-2 win against the Yankees, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and no walks with eight strikeouts over 6.1 innings.
Analiz
Despite posting a quality start and tying a season high with eight punchouts, Peterson departed in line for the loss after allowing a solo homer in the seventh inning before the Cubs eventually rallied to take him off the hook. The southpaw has been excellent to open the second half, yielding just three earned runs over three outings with a solid 15:3 K:BB in that span. He'll carry a 5.52 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 85:40 K:BB across 101 innings with the Mets and Cubs into a home matchup with the Blue Jays next week.
