Scott plans to treat the UCL sprain in his right elbow with rest and rehab with the hope of returning from the 15-day injured list later this season, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

According to Will Sammon of The Athletic, Scott will initially be shut down for two weeks before being re-evaluated. Though UCL sprains are often a precursor to Tommy John surgery or a similar arm operation down the road, Scott told Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News that he dealt with the same injury in the minors last season and was able to return to action in 21 days. The Mets are likely to act more conservatively with Scott's injury this time around, and a September return probably represents a best-case scenario for the rookie even if he's cleared to resume throwing following the two-week shutdown period.

The Mets placed Scott on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a UCL sprain in his right elbow.

EDGE Analysis

The severity of the sprain is not known at this time, but it's an injury that can lead to Tommy John surgery. Even if an operation isn't required, the young right-hander is likely to miss significant time. Scott has not been as sharp since rejoining the Mets' rotation earlier this month, posting a 5.49 ERA and 14:6 K:BB over 19.2 innings covering four starts. Kodai Senga (shoulder) is set to rejoin the rotation later this week, so the Mets could just revert to a standard five-man setup while Scott is out.

Scott (0-3) took the loss Sunday against the Marlins. He allowed three runs on seven hits and two walks over four innings while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

Scott got through the first three innings Sunday before running into trouble in the fourth. He allowed the first two runners to reach before serving up a three-run homer to Jazz Chisholm. He wouldn't come back out for the fifth, making it just the second time in his nine career starts that he couldn't get past the fourth inning. Scott has been plagued by the long ball, as he has given up eight home runs in his first 47.1 innings. The 25-year-old is still looking for his first career win and will carry a 4.56 ERA into his next start.

Scott allowed three runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out five batters over 4.1 innings in a no-decision against Colorado on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott gave up a third-inning solo homer but was up 4-1 heading into the fifth. However, the rookie ran into trouble in that frame, surrendering a one-out, two-run home run to Charlie Blackmon followed by a double and a walk. That was enough to earn him the hook, eliminating his chance of emerging with a victory. Scott still doesn't have a win to his ledger through eight big-league outings, though he's been able to hold his head above water with three quality starts and a 4.36 ERA along with a 1.11 WHIP through 43.1 innings.

Scott did not factor into the decision in Monday's 8-2 loss to Pittsburgh, allowing two runs on one hit and one walk over 5.2 innings. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie right-hander held the Pirates in check, with both runs scoring on a 431-foot homer by Oneil Cruz in the fourth inning. With this effort, Scott lowered his season ERA to 4.15 across 39 innings, but he's struggled to generate punchouts, fanning 30 for a 6.9 K/9. The 25-year-old is currently slated to make his next start against Colorado at home this weekend. However, Scott may lose his rotation spot after the All-Star break, as Kodai Senga (shoulder) is scheduled for rehab start at Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, lining up the Japanese right-hander to join the Mets soon.

Scott is scheduled to start Monday's game in Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

After being called up from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday to make his first start for the Mets since May 30, Scott took a no-decision in a 7-5 loss to the Nationals, covering 5.2 innings while surrendering four earned runs on six hits and two walks. Despite the underwhelming results, Scott will get at least one more chance to make a case for a more permanent spot in the New York rotation. Through six outings with the Mets this season, Scott has gone 0-2 with a 4.32 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 27:8 K:BB across 33.1 innings.

Scott surrendered four runs on six hits and two walks while striking out two batters over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus Washington on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott was called up from Triple-A on Wednesday to log his first big-league start since May 30, but he didn't make much of an impression. The rookie right-hander tied a season-worst mark by allowing four runs, and he struck out a season-low two batters. It was an especially disappointing outcome for Scott after he retired 12 of the first 14 batters he faced -- six of the eight baserunners he allowed came over his final 1.2 frames, and he departed after giving up a three-run homer to Luis Garcia with two outs in the sixth. Despite the overall poor result, there's a good chance Scott will get at least another turn through the rotation with New York not having an off day until the All-Star break and with Tylor Megill recently demoted to the minors.

The Mets recalled Scott from Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott is slated to start Wednesday against the Nationals and he could earn additional opportunities if he pitches well. The rookie right-hander has collected a 3.90 ERA and 25:6 K:BB over 27.2 innings in five starts with the major-league club this season.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Scott will be recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to start Wednesday versus the Nationals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Mendoza didn't commit to Scott making additional starts in the majors beyond Wednesday, the opportunity would seem to be there for the rookie right-hander after Tylor Megill was optioned to Triple-A on Sunday. Scott holds a 3.90 ERA and 25:6 K:BB over 27.2 innings in five starts with the big club this season.

Scott is expected to be called up from Triple-A Syracuse to start either Wednesday or Thursday in Washington, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott had been listed as Syracuse's starter for Monday, but he was scratched from the outing for non-injury reasons. The Mets have already confirmed David Peterson and Sean Manaea as their starters for the first two games in Washington, so Scott could slot into the rotation as early as Wednesday while New York navigates a stretch of 17 games in 17 days leading into the All-Star break. Scott turned in a 3.90 ERA and 25:6 K:BB over 27.2 innings in five starts earlier this season for New York. He's posted a 2.76 ERA and 55:12 K:BB in 42.1 frames covering nine starts with Syracuse.
