Prospect Spotlight

The powerful lefty has opened the season throwing his big fastball 96-to-98 mph, (T- 99). He’s had command issues, with seven walks over five appearances, but opposing hitters still can’t put good swings on his electric fastball. During his last outing, he strictly stuck to his fastball while flashing his inconsistent slider (79-to-81 mph) and a below-average changeup (90 mph).

He has the arsenal to be a big league reliever according to 2080’s most recent report, but Scott needs to continue developing his slider and bump it up to an average pitch to keep progressing. – Reggie Yinger
