The Chicago Cubs have traded for left-hander David Peterson from the New York Mets to bolster their injury-stricken starting rotation, sending prospect Cole Mathis in return. Mathis, a second-round draft pick, is currently on the injured list but has shown promise in the minors.

He is expected to pitch during the upcoming series against the Brewers as the Cubs deal with multiple injuries in their rotation.
