Christian Scott - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Goes 4.2 innings vs. Rockies 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.

Impact Scott's given up just three earned runs over 9.2 innings with 14 strikeouts and just two walks in his last two outings after issuing five walks in just 1.1 innings in his major-league start of the year. The young right-hander figures to get an extended run in the Mets' rotation with Kodai Senga (back) sidelined. Scott is tentatively lined up to face the Tigers at home in his next start.

Now in line to start Thursday Scott is slated to start Thursday's series finale versus the Rockies at Coors Field, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact Scott had been on track to make his second turn through the rotation in place of the injured Kodai Senga (back) on Wednesday, but he'll wind up getting pushed back a day in the schedule along with the Mets' other starters due to a rainout Tuesday. The 26-year-old righty is coming off a strong outing this past Friday, when he limited the Angels to three runs (two earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out eight over five innings.

Remaining in rotation Scott is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field.

Impact The 26-year-old righty was sent back to the minors after walking five batters and recording just four outs in a spot start April 23 versus the Twins, but Scott was called up just a few days later after the Mets needed a replacement in the rotation for the injured Kodai Senga (back). Scott fared much better in his start Friday against the Angels, striking out eight batters while yielding three runs (two earned) on three hits and no walks over five innings. With Senga facing an uncertain timeline for his return from the injured list, Scott could be in line for an extended stay in the big-league rotation, provided he's able to avoid the control problems that plagued him in his 2026 MLB debut.

Fans eight in no-decision Scott didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Angels, allowing three runs (two earned) on three hits while striking out eight across five frames.

Impact Scott was recalled to the big-league roster Tuesday after Kodai Senga (back) was placed on the injured list, and this was a far better showing than the one he delivered in his 2026 debut against the Twins on April 23. It remains to be seen if Scott will remain in the rotation for another turn, but if he does, he'd tentatively line up to make his next start on the road against the Rockies next week.

Re-entering rotation Friday Scott is slated to start Friday's game against the Angels in Anaheim.

Impact During his 2026 MLB debut last week against the Twins, Scott recorded just four outs while issuing five walks and hitting another batter, prompting the Mets to option him to Triple-A Syracuse following the start. Scott ended up being recalled Tuesday after Kodai Senga (back) was placed on the injured list, giving the young right-hander a shot at redemption after his rough debut. With Senga on the shelf and with David Peterson (6.53 ERA in 30.1 innings) having gotten off to a poor start to the season, Scott could have a path to sticking around in the rotation on a more permanent basis if he's able to deliver a strong outing against the Angels.

Rejoining big club The Mets recalled Scott from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact The right-hander was called up for his season debut last week and was returned to Syracuse after giving up one run on no hits and five walks over 1.1 innings, but he'll make a quick return to the majors with Kodai Senga (back) heading to the injured list. Scott should now get a longer look in the rotation, which was the initial plan before his abbreviated outing forced the Mets to shuffle their bullpen pieces.

Sent down after wild spot start The Mets optioned Scott to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact Scott issued five walks and lasted only 1.1 innings in a start Thursday versus the Twins. Manager Carlos Mendoza indicated after the game that the plan was to keep Scott in the rotation, but evidently the skipper had a change of heart. With David Peterson and Kodai Senga both struggling, Scott should get another opportunity in the Mets' rotation eventually.

APRIL 24 • ROTOWIRE

Can't find plate in season debut Scott allowed one run on no hits and five walks while striking out one batter over 1.1 innings in a no-decision against Minnesota on Thursday.

Impact Scott was promoted from Triple-A Syracuse earlier in the day and made his first big-league appearance since 2024. Though he was charged with just one run, the outing was a mess for the right-hander, as he threw only 18 of 43 pitches for strikes, walked five batters, hit another batter and was called for a balk. The run Scott gave up came as a result of four first-inning free passes, and he nearly walked another batter, falling behind 3-0 in the count before eventually getting Luke Keaschall to fly out. Despite the rough outing, Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said after Thursday's contest that the team plans to give Scott another turn in the rotation, per Max Goodman of NJ.com.

Promoted ahead of start The Mets recalled Scott from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of his start against the Twins on Thursday.

Impact Scott owns a 5.27 ERA and 1.14 WHIP through 13.2 innings at Triple-A, but he's given up just two earned runs in 10.1 frames across his last two starts. He'll now return to the Mets' rotation for the first time since 2024 -- he missed all of 2025 recovering from Tommy John surgery -- and face a Twins offense that is batting just .227 through its first 24 games. Austin Warren was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Entering big-league rotation Manager Carlos Mendoza announced Tuesday that Scott will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse to start Thursday's game against the Twins, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

Impact The right-hander surrendered six earned runs over 3.1 innings during his season debut with Syracuse on April 3, but he has a 1.74 ERA, 0.58 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB over 10.1 frames in his past two Triple-A starts. Scott is now set to make his first MLB start since 2024, which is when he made his big-league debut with nine starts before requiring Tommy John surgery with an internal brace.

APRIL 21 • ROTOWIRE

Knocking on door for promotion Scott has posted a 1.74 ERA, 0.58 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB in 10.1 innings over his last two starts for Triple-A Syracuse.

Impact In his most recent outing Wednesday, the 26-year-old right-hander fired 50 of 82 pitches for strikes but lost a showdown with top Yankees prospect Elmer Rodriguez. Scott did get tagged for six runs in 3.1 innings in his season debut after sitting out all of 2025 while recovering from elbow surgery, but his quick turnaround coincides with the struggles of David Peterson and Kodai Senga in the Mets' big-league rotation. If New York elects to shake things up after a 7-13 start to the campaign, Scott is a likely candidate to get a promotion.

Impresses manager Scott was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Scott stretched out to 56 pitches over three-plus innings Monday, allowing three runs and striking out four Nationals batters. It's no surprise to see him ticketed for Triple-A to start his first full season back from Tommy John surgery, but he could be the first name called when the big-league rotation needs reinforcements. "This is a guy that's not afraid," said manager Carlos Mendoza. "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." He generated seven whiffs on his splitter and four more on his fastball in Monday's outing. All told, Scott logged a 4.50 ERA, 1.67 WHIP and 8:4 K:BB in six innings during Grapefruit League play. He threw 89.2 innings in 2024 and missed all of 2025 recovering from surgery.

Fans five in first spring action Scott allowed two hits over 2.2 scoreless innings in Wednesday's exhibition game against Team Israel. He struck out five without walking a batter.

Impact It was the first game action since July 2024 for the right-hander as he enters the final stages of his recovery from Tommy John surgery. Scott fired an impressive 40 of his 50 pitches for strikes after taking over from David Peterson to begin the fourth inning, and his fastball topped out at 96.8 mph. Scott will begin the season at Triple-A Syracuse barring a rash of injuries to the Mets' rotation, but he figures to be a factor for the big club some time this summer.
