2026 Fantasy Outlook
Scott was sidelined for all of 2025 after undergoing hybrid Tommy John and internal brace surgery in September of 2024. He began throwing on flat ground the following March and continued throughout the summer, including throwing off a mound and facing live hitters. Scott was reportedly sitting around 94 mph, while occasionally reaching 96 mph. Because his recovery plan includes a required cooldown period, he shut things down for a few months with the intention of ramping back up in January. While he's expected to be ready for the start of spring training, the Mets can afford to be patient given their depth of young arms. Scott is likely to begin the season at Triple-A Syracuse, with a potential call-up later in the year, as reestablishing his control and command will ultimately dictate his timeline.

Goes 4.2 innings vs. Rockies

May 7, 2026
Scott didn't factor into the decision Thursday against Colorado, allowing a run on three hits and two walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out six.
Analysis
After issuing five walks in just 1.1 frames in his major-league start of the year, Scott has given up only three earned runs over 9.2 innings with a 14:2 K:BB in his last two outings. The young right-hander figures to get an extended run in the Mets' rotation with Kodai Senga (back) sidelined, especially given his improved recent form. Scott is tentatively lined up to face the Tigers at home in his next start.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2025
2024
Scott may have improved his prospect status more than any other pitcher until his meteoric rise was curtailed by a UCL sprain in his right elbow. After first hoping to avoid surgery, Scott underwent a hybrid Tommy John and internal brace procedure in late September. He's slated to miss the entire 2025 campaign. Scott's breakout began in the second half of 2023 as he fanned 77 in 62 innings with Double-A Binghamton. He opened last season with Triple-A Syracuse, punching out 55 in 42.1 frames. He was less effective in 47.1 innings with the Mets, notching just 39 strikeouts while issuing eight homers. He'll still be just 27 years old when he takes the hill again in 2026, so he could be worth a stash in deep keeper and dynasty formats.
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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Nearing return to majors?
PNew York Mets
June 25, 2024
Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Sunday that there's a "good chance" Scott rejoins the big-league rotation in advance of the All-Star break, reports Anthony DiComo of MLB.com.
Analysis
Friday's series opener against the Astros will start a stretch of 17 straight days with a game for the Mets, and Scott could work as a sixth starter to create some rest for the rotation. The 25-year-old was called up for his MLB debut in May and pitched well in five starts with a 3.90 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 25:6 K:BB across 27.2 innings. With the trade deadline looming and the Mets positioned to potentially be sellers, Scott could be up in the majors for good this time around.
