Fantasy Impact:

Scott’s .366/.469/.756 spring line, with 4 homers and 5 steals in 15 games, outshines his .179/.219/.283 MLB debut over 155 plate appearances last year, securing the Cardinals’ center field job over Michael Siani. The 24-year-old’s speed pops. Fantasy managers in all leagues should roster him, banking on his 99th percentile sprint speed for big stolen base totals in St. Louis’ 2025 lineup.
