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

May 5, 2024
Scott did not factor into the decision against the Rays on Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out six over 6.2 innings.
ANALYSIS
Scott surrendered one run on three consecutive hits to open the bottom of the first before going on to retire the next 12 batters he faced. The 24-year-old right-hander threw 17 first-pitch strikes and generated 18 whiffs in the contest, making a very strong case to stick around in Mets' rotation. Scott currently lines up to toe the rubber against Atlanta at home next week, if he's able to draw another start.

* Exit Velocity, Barrels/BBE %, Balls Hit 95+ MPH %, and Spin Rate are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 120 IP). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

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.
