Christian Scott

Scott threw 89.2 innings in 2024 before missing all of 2025 recovering from Tommy John surgery. In his return this spring he posted a 4.50 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 8:4 K:BB across six Grapefruit League innings, including a 56-pitch, three-plus inning outing Monday against the Nationals where he allowed three runs, struck out four, and generated seven whiffs on his splitter and four more on his fastball.

Scott was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse Tuesday to begin his first full season back from surgery, though he's regarded as the first option when the Mets' rotation needs reinforcements. "This is a guy that's not afraid," manager Carlos Mendoza said. "He attacks and stays on the attack. I think it's just keeping him healthy, because he's going to be a big part of this team moving forward."

Christian Scott is slated to enter spring training without any limitations.

Fantasy Impact

Scott is expected to head into next season competing for a spot in the Mets starting rotation. He will be fully recovered from Tommy John surgery. He is likely to open the season in Triple-A with the goal to be called up at some point in the middle of the season.

Christian Scott will toss from 45 feet Monday as he works back from hybrid elbow surgery done last September, per team reports.

Fantasy Impact

Scott’s rehab is humming along—“counting down the hours,” he said Tuesday—with better nutrition and fitness in tow, but he’s out for 2025 game action, marking Monday as his first throw since surgery. A full recovery could see the righty vying for a big-league rotation spot next spring. Fantasy managers in dynasty leagues might stash him; redraft folks can sit this one out.

The Mets placed Christian Scott on the 60-day injured list.

Fantasy Impact

Scott is unlikely to pitch this season for the Mets.

Christian Scott will undergo a combined Tommy John ligament replacement surgery with an internal brace.

Fantasy Impact

Scott has been on the IL since July due to a UCL sprain and has been working towards a return this season. It's unclear if he suffered a recent setback, but he will most likely miss all of the 20225 season after surgery early next week.
