Christian Scott Healthy for 2026 After Tommy John Surgery

Mets pitching prospect Christian Scott is healthy and ready for 2026 after missing all of 2025 due to Tommy John surgery late in 2024. Despite a promising MLB debut in 2024 and being the Mets' #5 prospect, he may not break camp with the team due to organizational pitching depth. Scott's mid-to-high 90s fastball, described as the "best heater in the minors" with elite command, is a key asset. His main challenge is limiting home runs, having allowed 18 in 18 starts across Triple-A and MLB in 2024.
