The Mets moved left-hander David Peterson to the 60-day injured list earlier Saturday, but the placement didn’t have anything to do with the oblique strain that was already projected to keep Peterson out for roughly two months.  Instead, Peterson suffered a Jones fracture in his right foot on Friday and will need to undergo surgery.
The injury apparently occurred in rather freakish fashion, as Mets manager Luis Rojas told MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo and other reporters that Peterson “was just walking” through the team clubhouse on Friday “and he felt a pop.  That’s it.  He was very frustrated.  He didn’t understand how this could happen.”  Rojas wasn’t sure whether or not the surgery would end Peterson’s season, but between the recovery from the foot fracture and the still-ongoing rehab of a significant oblique strain, the odds don’t look good on Peterson getting back on the mound until at least late September.
