Jace Peterson Fantasy Stats

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Jace Peterson (wrist) returned to the team's Cactus League lineup on Monday, starting at third base and batting second in the lineup. Peterson is making his return after being held out of spring training action for almost a week due to inflammation in his right wrist, but the 33-year-old veteran is feeling better now. When the rest of Arizona's infield is healthy, there isn't going to be a starting spot available for him in 2024, so he's expected to serve in a utility infield role in the desert. The left-handed hitter spent last year with the D-backs and Oakland Athletics, slashing just .211/.304/.307 with six home runs, 37 RBI and a career-high 15 stolen bases in 133 games played. At best, Peterson is a bench option for his speed in NL-only affairs.

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Jace Peterson was added to the World Series roster in place of pitcher Slade Cecconi. Peterson started the year with the Oakland Athletics and could now be days away from winning a World Series. The journeyman is known more for his speed than anything and could be used as a pinch-runner/late-inning defensive replacement. Cecconi had a good first season with Arizona, posting a 4.33 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and 20 strikeouts over 27 innings pitched. In the NLCS, he appeared in two games covering two innings while giving up two hits and striking out one without allowing a run.

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.

The Oakland Athletics and Jace Peterson are reportedly "in agreement on a two-year contract, pending physical," per a tweet from FanSided's Robert Murray on Tuesday. Murray tweeted: "Free-agent utilityman Jace Peterson and the Oakland A's are in agreement on a two-year contract, pending physical, according to source familiar with the deal." Peterson appeared in 113 games for the Milwaukee Brewers last season, seeing time at a multitude of positions, including third base, right field, first base, left field and second base. He hit .236 in 328 plate appearances while adding a .316 on-base percentage, eight home runs and 12 stolen bases in the process.

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jace Peterson (elbow) landed on the 10-day injured list with a left elbow sprain on Saturday. Peterson told the media that he hopes to return during the middle or the end of August. However, Brewers manager Craig Counsell said that a late August return seemed "optimistic." The 32-year-old has appeared in 80 games so far this year and he's slashed .252/.325/.439 with eight home runs, 10 stolen bases, 30 RBI and 33 runs. In his absence, we should see Tyrone Taylor and Jonathan Davis earn additional playing time.

Milwaukee Brewers utility man Jace Peterson continues to perform admirably as a fill-in all over the diamond. On Wednesday, Peterson went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a triple, an RBI, and a run scored. In his last seven games he's slashing .389/.421/1.000 with two home runs in 18 at-bats, and for the season he has managed five homers and six steals. Any player who can contribute both power and speed is worth rostering, at least for as long as he is receiving playing time. Peterson is worth a short-term add.

The Milwaukee Brewers haven't officially ruled out third baseman Luis Urias (quadriceps) for Opening Day due to his left quad injury, but manager Craig Counsell said this weekend that it's "getting less likely" that he'll be active on Opening Day on April 7 against the Cubs. Jace Peterson, Mike Brosseau and Pablo Reyes could all see time at the hot corner until Urias is ready, but Peterson makes the most sense to start on Opening Day against a right-handed pitcher. Peterson is known more for his defense, but he did have an .820 OPS in the first half in 2021. He last played in an Opening Day game in 2017 with the Braves and last started on Opening Day in 2016.

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Jace Peterson went 3-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Monday's 3-1 win over the Giants. Peterson scored the second run of the game when Corbin Burnes drove him in in the second inning. In addition, he added a ground-rule double in the eighth. It was the third game this season Peterson reached base safely four times. The 31-year-old is slashing .278/.400/.428 with five homers, 28 RBI, 32 runs, and eight steals in 220 plate appearances. He is receiving more playing time temporarily while Eduardo Escobar (hamstring) is on the 10-day injured list. He has been a very solid value play in DFS, when he's on the field, he seems to produce.

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Jace Peterson will lead off and start at second base in Sunday's series finale in Cincinnati. He'll be filling in at the keystone for Kolten Wong, who is getting the day off after manning the position in the first two games of the series following his reinstatement from the 10-day injured list. With Wong back in the fold, Peterson likely won't have a clear path to regular playing time at second base, but his positional versatility should afford him multiple avenues into the lineup. Peterson had started at first base over Rowdy Tellez and Keston Hiura on Friday and Saturday, going 3-for-8 with a pair of walks, an RBI, and a run between the contests.
