Victor Scott II Reassigned To Minor-League Camp
9 months agoThe St. Louis Cardinals announced on Saturday that they have reassigned outfield prospect Victor Scott II to minor-league camp. Even though the 23-year-old might be the team's best pure center fielder, the Cardinals are going to have him start the year at Triple-A Memphis so that he can play everyday. Lars Nootbaar (ribs) and Tommy Edman (wrist) are both starting the year on the injured list, but Nootbaar isn't expected to be out long, and the Cardinals would rather see Scott get regular playing time in the minors. Scott looked good this spring, batting .316 with four stolen bases in 10 Grapefruit League games and is certainly worth stashing in deep-mixed and NL-only leagues for his speed. According to MLB Pipeline, he's the team's No. 4 prospect entering the season.
