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

Promotion likely not imminent

Scott gave up one run over five innings Wednesday for Triple-A Syracuse, striking out 10 batters while walking only one, but the Mets would prefer not to rush his promotion to the majors, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old right-hander solidified his status as the organization's top pitching prospect during spring training, and Scott has dominated in his first two Triple-A starts, posting a 19:1 K:BB through nine innings. The Mets also have an opening in the big-league rotation after designating Julio Teheran for assignment Tuesday, but Jose Butto is expected to fill that spot this weekend against the Royals. Butto gave New York a quality start in his first outing with the big club this season, so he's likely to get at least a couple more turns, but if Scott continues to mow down Triple-A hitters, the Mets may have to accelerate the timeline they had in mind for him.

April 24, 2024
According to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com, the Mets aren't ready o promote due to his workload and the six homers he's allowed through four starts at Triple-A Syracuse.
ANALYSIS
The 24-year-old is missing bats at Triple-A with a 34:4 K:BB across 20.2 innings, but the long ball has been a problem early in the season. Scott's career high of 87.2 frames is also a concern, as his workload needs to continue being managed. It seems like only a matter of time before the right-hander makes his MLB debut, but it may not come until the schedule moves into the summer months.
