Jace Peterson Stats

The Arizona Diamondbacks acquired infielder Jace Peterson and cash considerations from the Oakland Athletics on Monday in exchange for right-hander Chad Patrick. Peterson will fill more of a utility bench role for the contending Diamondbacks down the stretch, so he won't have much fantasy appeal outside of deeper leagues the rest of the way. The 33-year-old left-handed-hitting veteran is batting .221/.313/.324 with only six home runs, 28 RBI, 11 stolen bases and 30 runs scored in 281 at-bats for Oakland in 2023. He's been better in July, though, and has a four-game hitting streak going in which he's gone 4-for-11 with an RBI and two runs scored in 13 trips to the plate. Peterson should probably only be rostered in very deep mixed leagues and now NL-only formats for his speed.

Oakland A's third baseman Jace Peterson (hand) was removed from Wednesday's spring training game after he was hit by a pitch on the hand against the Chicago Cubs. Peterson initially remained in the game but was eventually replaced in the lineup. The team announced later on Wednesday that Peterson had sustained a bruised hand but he is expected to be fine. Peterson hit .236 with eight homers, 34 RBI, and 44 runs in 113 games in 2022. He is expected to see the majority of the playing time at third base for Oakland this year.
