2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 6-foot-4 righty with pinpoint command, Scott had a 3.4 percent walk rate in 12 starts at Double-A. Scott transitioned from mostly pitching in relief in college to slowly getting stretched out in 2022 and then building up to 87.2 innings as a true starter last season, mostly at Double-A. He was too old (turns 25 in June) and accurate to meet resistance in the lower levels and managed a 2.47 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and a 77:8 K:BB in 62 innings against Double-A hitters. Scott has yet to log a true starter's workload over a full season, but he also hasn't gone through much adversity. He sits at 94 mph with his four-seamer, but the pitch has good life and can touch as high as 98 mph. His slider and changeup are viable second and third offerings, but his fastball can be his top bat-misser thanks to his ability to place it where he wants. Given his age and command, Scott could move quickly to the majors this summer. Read Past Outlooks

Takes first major-league loss
PNew York Mets
May 11, 2024
Scott (0-1) took the loss against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out eight batters over six innings.
ANALYSIS
Scott couldn't counter seven dominant no-hit innings by opposing starter Max Fried, but the rookie was impressive in his own right, racking up 15 swinging strikes and recording the second straight quality start to begin his career. The most significant blow against the right-hander was a two-run homer off the bat of Orlando Arcia, the first Scott's allowed at the big-league level. With word that the Mets won't have a hard innings limit for Scott this season, there's a good chance that he remains in the Mets' rotation moving forward even with Tylor Megill (shoulder) potentially returning from the injured list as soon as next week.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could boost big-league rotation
PNew York Mets
April 30, 2024
Mike Puma of the New York Post believes the Mets should call up Scott to give a boost to their rotation.
ANALYSIS
The Mets have been reluctant to promote Scott early this season, but he's pitched well for Syracuse with a 3.20 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 36:6 K:BB across 25.1 innings. The 24-year-old righty's only real blemish is the long ball, as he's given up at least one homer in all five starts. Adrian Houser has surrendered 14 runs over his past two starts and likely doesn't have much of a leash to remain in the New York rotation, and another poor outing could prompt the organization to bring up Scott for his MLB debut.
