Mets' Christian Scott: Silences Royals on Wednesday
Rotowire
Scott took a no-decision Wednesday against the Royals, allowing no runs on three hits and one walk in five innings. He struck out five.
Scott cooled down a Royals team that had exploded for 31 runs across their prior two games, scattering three singles over five shutout frames. The 27-year-old right-hander completed five innings for the first time since June 5 in San Diego, though he's still yet to get through six frames in any of his 12 outings on the year thus far. Scott is set to head into the All-Star break with a quality 3.17 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 65:26 K:BB across 54 innings.

Mets' Christian Scott: Allows two homers in first loss
Rotowire
Scott (2-1) took the loss against Atlanta on Friday, allowing three runs on two hits and four walks with seven strikeouts over four innings.
Scott generated 13 swinging strikes on 82 pitches but was burned by two homers. It was more of the same for the 27-year-old, who's surrendered six long balls over his past three outings despite tallying 19 strikeouts across just 13 innings during that stretch. He owns a 3.49 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 60:25 K:BB over 49 frames this season and lines up for a home matchup with the Royals next week.

Mets' Christian Scott: Strikes out six in return
Rotowire
Scott did not factor into the decision in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Phillies, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts over 4.1 innings.
Scott took the mound for the first time since June 11 and generated a whopping 17 whiffs on 82 pitches, with a two-run homer by Bryce Harper serving as his only blemish. The 27-year-old righty handled a typical workload Saturday, as he's pitched beyond the fifth inning just twice in 10 outings this season. He'll carry a 3.20 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 53:21 K:BB across 45 innings into a road matchup with Atlanta next weekend.

Mets' Christian Scott: Activated for start
Rotowire
The Mets reinstated Scott (hip) from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start Saturday against the Phillies.
After landing on the injured list June 15 with a right hip impingement, Scott will now return to the Mets' rotation after a minimum-length stay without making a rehab appearance in the minors. He'll be welcomed back by a Phillies offense that has been red hot recently, posting an .829 OPS across its last 10 games. Zach Thornton was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move.
Mets' Christian Scott: Poised to pitch this weekend
Rotowire
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Tuesday that Scott (hip) is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to start this weekend against the Phillies, Andrew Tredinnick of The Bergen Record reports.
The right-hander will be eligible to be reinstated from the injured list Saturday, so his stay on the shelf due to a hip impingement will end up being a brief one. Scott threw a simulated game Monday and wil re-enter the Mets' starting rotation without a minor-league rehab assignment.

Mets' Christian Scott: Set for sim game Monday
Rotowire
Scott (hip) is scheduled to throw a simulated game Monday, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
The 27-year-old right-hander has been dealing with a hip impingement, but he's feeling much better after receiving a shot last week. A timeline for Scott's return to the rotation should come into focus after the sim game, but he could bypass a rehab assignment and potentially returning from the 15-day injured list as soon as this weekend. Through nine starts for the Mets this season, Scott has produced a 3.10 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 47:19 K:BB through 40.2 innings.

Mets' Christian Scott: Throwing off mound
Rotowire
Scott (hip) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Scott reportedly didn't have any problems while throwing off a mound for the first time since landing on the injured list Monday with a right hip impingement. The Mets plan to have him throw a couple more mound sessions before activating him around the time he's eligible to return next Saturday.
Mets' Christian Scott: Shelved with hip impingement
Rotowire
The Mets placed Scott on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a right hip impingement.
According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, Scott's hip issue isn't believed to be serious, which should give the right-hander a chance at returning from the IL around when he's first eligible June 27. The loss of Scott will still force the Mets to add two new members to the rotation this week, with Tobias Myers already having been recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to fill one of the openings during Monday's series opener in Cincinnati. Long reliever David Peterson is a candidate to cover Scott's spot in the rotation Tuesday, and Triple-A starters Jack Wenninger and Zach Thornton also loom as potential replacements.

Mets' Christian Scott: Ticketed for IL
Rotowire
The Mets are expected to place Scott on the 15-day injured list Monday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports. Scott is reportedly tending to a hip issue, according to Jon Heyman of the New York Post.
Though it's unclear when Scott sustained the injury, the Mets believe that the 27-year-old righty is dealing with a minor concern. In any case, the loss of Scott further depletes the Mets' rotation depth and will require the team to add another pitcher to the mix Tuesday, when Scott had been scheduled to start against the Reds. If he isn't needed in relief of starter Tobias Myers in Monday's series opener, David Peterson could be a leading candidate to take Scott's spot in the rotation. The Mets could also look to call up Jack Wenninger or Zach Thornton from Triple-A Syracuse to fill a spot until Kodai Senga (arm) is cleared to return from the IL.

Mets' Christian Scott: Gives up three homers Thursday
Rotowire
Scott did not factor into the decision in the Mets' 5-4 win over the Cardinals on Wednesday, giving up four runs on seven hits and a walk over 4.2 innings. He struck out six.
Scott struggled to keep the ball in the park Wednesday -- he surrendered four runs on three homers in the first two innings. Coming into the day, Scott had given up just one home run this season and none in his previous starts (29.2 innings) leading up to Wednesday, so the long ball isn't a major concern despite New York's power display. The right-hander now sports a 3.10 ERA with a 1.35 WHIP and 47:19 K:BB across 40.2 innings this season. Scott is tentatively lined up to face the Reds on the road in his next outing.

Mets' Christian Scott: Earns second win Friday
Rotowire
Scott (2-0) allowed three hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.2 shutout innings to earn the win over the Padres on Friday.
Scott threw 67 of 98 pitches for strikes in this contest. Over his last three starts, he's covered 16.1 innings, allowing just one run on 12 hits and six walks with 16 strikeouts in that span. Scott has a 2.50 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 41:18 K:BB through 36 innings across eight starts this season. The right-hander is projected to make his next start at home against the Cardinals. Scott looks to have done enough to keep his spot in the rotation when Kodai Senga (back) returns, as David Peterson has moved to the bullpen and Jonah Tong was reassigned to Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday.

Mets' Christian Scott: Strikes out eight for first win
Rotowire
Scott (1-0) earned the win against the Marlins on Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and two walks with eight strikeouts over five innings.
Scott opened with four scoreless frames before allowing a run in the fifth, generating 11 swinging strikes on a season-high 96 pitches. Though he's struggled to work deep into games, the 26-year-old has yielded three earned runs or fewer in each of his seven starts this season while recording at least five strikeouts in six of them. He'll carry a 2.97 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB across 30.1 innings into a road matchup against the Padres next weekend.

Mets' Christian Scott: Settles for no-decision Sunday
Rotowire
Scott took a no-decision Sunday against the Marlins, allowing no runs on four hits and two walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out five.
Scott delivered arguably his best effort of the campaign so far, turning in his first scoreless start while completing a season-best 5.2 frames. Control has perhaps been the 26-year-old right-hander's biggest impediment in 2026, as the hurler has hit at least one batter and also walked multiple hitters in four of his first five outings. Scott owns a 3.20 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 30:14 K:BB across 25.1 innings heading into next weekend's scheduled rematch at home versus Miami.

Mets' Christian Scott: Fans five in no-decision
Rotowire
Scott didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Nationals, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five across four innings.
Scott has yet to pitch past the fifth inning in any of his five big-league starts this season, and his inability to go deep into games limits his fantasy stock. The 26-year-old righty's done a good job of limiting the damage though, as he's allowed two or fewer earned runs in four of those five outings. Scott will carry a 4.12 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 25:12 K:BB across 19.2 innings into his next start, which is scheduled for this weekend's road series against the Marlins.

Mets' Christian Scott: No-decision against Detroit
Rotowire
Scott did not factor into Wednesday's decision against the Tigers, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five across 4.2 innings.
Scott got off to a rocky start by yielding two runs in the first inning, and he allowed at least two baserunners in four of five frames before being pulled with two outs in the fifth. It was the second straight start in which Scott didn't complete the fifth inning, though he's given up two earned runs or fewer in each of his last three outings. He'll take a 3.45 ERA and 1.40 WHIP (across 15.2 innings) into his next start, which is lined up for next week on the road against the Nationals.
Mets' Christian Scott: Goes 4.2 innings vs. Rockies
Rotowire
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.
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.
