Diamondbacks' Jace Peterson: Added back to roster
Peterson was added to the Diamondbacks' World Series roster Friday.
Peterson was part of Arizona's roster for the Wild Card Round before being removed for the NLCS, but he's now back on the roster for the Fall Classic. Slade Cecconi -- who replaced Peterson on the NLCS roster -- has been removed. Evan Longoria is just 5-for-37 with 17 strikeouts this postseason, so it's possible Peterson sees some action at third base, at least against right-handed pitching.

Diamondbacks' Jace Peterson: Returns to bench
Peterson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.
Since being acquired from Oakland on July 31, Peterson has mostly served as a strong-side platoon option at third base, but he'll likely have to settle for more of a utility role moving forward. With both second baseman Ketel Marte (knee) and shortstop Jordan Lawlar (hand) back in the lineup Monday after one-game absences, Peterson will retreat to the bench after he manned the keystone Sunday. Geraldo Perdomo has seemingly supplanted Peterson as the Diamondbacks' preferred option at third base.
