Christian Scott on Track to Return Next Saturday?
New York Mets right-hander Christian Scott (hip) threw a bullpen session on Saturday with no issues, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. He expects to throw one or two more bullpens, which keeps him in line to be activated from the 15-day injured list on or around when he's eligible to return next Saturday, June, 27. Saturday was the first time that the 27-year-old threw off a mound since the Mets placed him on the IL on Monday with a right-hip impingement. Scott's injury isn't serious enough for the Mets to consider sending him on a minor-league rehab assignment before returning to the big-league starting rotation. The former fifth-round pick by New York in 2021 out of the University of Florida has looked good so far in 2026 in his return from Tommy John surgery, going 2-0 with a 3.10 ERA (3.84 FIP) and 1.35 WHIP with 47 strikeouts and 19 walks in 40 1/3 frames across nine starts. With Scott's potential return coming in exactly a week, fantasy managers in need of rotation help should consider adding him off the waiver wire soon. Scott is only rostered in 14% of Yahoo leagues.
