Victor Scott II - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Reworks swing over offseason Scott reengineered his swing over the offseason after a motion-capture study, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact The specific changes Scott made aren't clear, but the speedy outfielder is also focused this spring on bunting for base hits. Scott was a Gold Glove finalist in 2025 in his first full major-league season for his fine defensive work in center field, but he slashed only .216/.305/.296 with five home runs. The 25-year-old did steal 34 bases in 38 attempts, and if he is a factor in fantasy leagues in 2026, it will likely be almost solely due to his ability on the basepaths.

Impact Scott finished the season 10th in the majors in steals after picking up his 34th pilfer of the year Sunday.

Scott added a .601 OPS, five home runs, 37 RBI, 54 runs scored, 15 doubles and one triple in 463 plate appearances in his first full major-league season.
