Scott allowed one hit but struck out three across a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Thursday against the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Scott allowed a one-out single but otherwise looked dominant to pick up his seventh save of the season. He has tallied each of Miami's last six saves and has allowed three earned runs -- all in one appearance -- across 8.2 innings as the closer. Scott's 16 walks across 28 total frames remain a concern, but his 45 strikeouts indicate he has the stuff to succeed in a ninth-inning role.

Scott earned a save after recording two strikeouts during the ninth inning of Tuesday's win over the Rockies. He walked one batter and didn't allow a hit.

EDGE Analysis

The left-hander has now issued four walks over his past three appearances, but he had no other issues Tuesday while protecting a one-run lead. Scott has taken ahold of the closer role in June and is 5-for-6 in save opportunities with a 3.12 ERA and 15:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings, though his 4.67 ERA for the campaign diminishes his longer-term prospects.

Scott (2-2) took the loss and blew his first save of the season Wednesday as the Marlins were downed 3-1 by the Phillies, giving up three runs on two hits and a walk over two-thirds of an inning. Both outs came on strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

Called in to close out a combined shutout, Scott instead put two runners aboard before serving up a walkoff homer to backup catcher Garrett Stubbs. Scott hadn't allowed an earned run in June prior to Wednesday's stumble, but his 5.04 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 39:13 K:BB through 25 innings on the season make it tough to count on him holding down the closer job in Miami for the long haul.

Scott struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his fourth save of the season in a 7-4 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

The southpaw now has three saves and two wins in his last five appearances, as Scott emerges as the Marlins' top bullpen option while Anthony Bender (back) is on the injured list. Scott's 4.24 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 11.9 percent walk rate through 23.1 innings on the season highlight his volatility, but his career-best 35.6 percent strikeout rate -- which includes a 9:0 K:BB over that five-game stretch -- has allowed him to power through.

Scott earned the save, striking out two in the ninth inning of a 7-4 win Thursday against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Scott retired the Nationals in order, striking out the first two batters before getting Juan Soto to line out to end the game. The lefty has two saves and two wins in his four June appearances. His three saves lead active Marlins and no other Marlin has recorded a save this month.

Scott (2-1) picked up the win Wednesday, giving up an unearned run on one hit with two strikeouts in the 10th inning of a 2-1 victory over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

The lefty allowed the designated runner Luis Garcia to score on a single by Keibert Ruiz for the game's first run, but the Marlins struck back for two runs in the bottom of the 10th. Scott has been Miami's most reliable high-leverage reliever lately, but that's not saying much -- he has a 4.15 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 18:8 K:BB through 13 innings since the beginning of May with two wins, a save and a hold in 14 appearances.

Scott struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Thursday to record his second save of the season in a win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

The southpaw got his opportunity to close after Cole Sulser had blown his last two save chances, and Scott didn't disappoint. The 27-year-old has a career-high 33.3 percent strikeout rate through 19.1 innings, which is certainly closer-worthy, but he also sports a 13.8 percent walk rate along with a 5.12 ERA and 1.40 WHIP. Scott will need to string together a lot more clean appearances before he can be viewed as a safe high-leverage option, and a reliable fantasy asset.

Scott (0-1) took the loss Friday against the Brewers, failing to record an out while giving up one run on two hits.

EDGE Analysis

Entering a 1-1 game in the top of the ninth inning, Scott promptly loaded the bases on two singles and a hit batsman before being replaced by Anthony Bender, who walked in the winning run. Scott's 38.6 percent strikeout rate to begin the season is elite, but it comes with a 12.3 percent walk rate, and his 4.38 ERA and 1.38 WHIP through 12.1 innings highlight how volatile he's been. Despite seeing high-leverage work, the 27-year-old southpaw has zero wins or holds and only one save (in two chances) in 15 appearances for the Marlins.

Scott gave up three runs on two hits while striking out one and getting just one out before being replaced in the ninth inning Sunday against Atlanta. He entered with a 5-1 lead, and Miami ended up winning 5-4.

EDGE Analysis

Scott struck out Travis Demeritte for what would have been the first out of the ninth inning with the Marlins up four runs, but it was a wild pitch and Demeritte reached first base safely. That was followed by an Ozzie Albies double, a Matt Olson sacrifice fly and an Austin Riley two-run homer. Scott got a save Saturday in a clean ninth inning and was called on a second day in a row to protect a four-run lead. He created a save situation that Louis Head converted. The Marlins seem to have a committee in the ninth inning, though manager Don Mattingly would like one pitcher to emerge as the go-to option. Anthony Bender has faltered in the role, so any of Scott, Cole Sulser or Anthony Bass could get opportunities in the short term.

Scott struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Saturday to record his first save of the season in a 9-7 win over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Anthony Bender hadn't pitched since Wednesday, but manager Don Mattingly didn't look his way after the Marlins took the lead in the top of the seventh inning, suggesting the closer role in Miami is wide open once again. Scott has pitched well to begin the season, posting a 12:2 K:BB through seven innings with a 2.57 ERA and 0.57 WHIP, but the southpaw could find himself in more of a high-leverage situational role rather than as the designated ninth-inning option once Dylan Floro (shoulder) comes off the IL.
