Scott was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

It's already the second time Scott has been been optioned back to Norfolk this season, and could be a relatively short stay once again. The 23-year-old has allowed three earned runs on six hits and one walk over 4.2 innings (three appearances) with five strikeouts for the Orioles this season.

Scott was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk prior to Friday's game against Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Scott will take the place of infielder Engelb Vielma, who was optioned back to Norfolk in a corresponding move. Earlier this month, Scott recorded five outs in a relief appearance against the Yankees while allowing one earned run off two hits and a walk. That was the lone major-league outing for Scott thus far in 2018, as he was then optioned to Norfolk for bullpen replenishments. Looking ahead, expect him to serve out of lower-leverage spots while he's with the big-league team.

Scott was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The Orioles needed a fresh arm after their bullpen threw nearly 12 innings in Sunday's extra innings win over the Yankees, so Scott will head back to Norfolk while fellow pitching prospect Hunter Harvey joins the big club. Scott allowed one run on on hit and one walk while striking out one batter in 1.2 innings of work Sunday. The 23-year-old southpaw should be back with the big club at some point this season.

Scott was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott will provide a fresh arm in the bullpen for Sunday's series finale against the Yankees after Jimmy Yacabonis was touched up for three runs in his lone inning of relief Saturday before getting sent back to Norfolk. Look for the left-handed Scott to work in long relief during his stint with the big club and see most of his opportunities in lower-leverage spots.

Scott may be used as a reliever at Triple-A Norfolk this season, Eduardo A. Encina of The Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott had an impressive showing at Double-A Bowie last season, where he was used as a starter and threw for a 2.22 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 24 games. However, the Orioles want to have Scott join their bullpen later in the season, so the club is entertaining the idea of moving the 23-year-old back to his previous role as a reliever. Scott will look to improve his control with Norfolk, as he posted an unsightly 87:46 K:BB in 2017.

Scott was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday, Eduardo A. Encina of The Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Scott will report to Norfolk to begin the season after spending the majority of the 2017 campaign with Double-A Bowie. The 23-year-old worked as a reliever in spring training, but he's expected to stretch out and continue his development as a starter at Triple-A. He sports power fastball/slider combo, but Scott will need to develop a quality third offering and refine his command if he wants to stick in the rotation.

Scott will continue to be developed as a starting pitcher and will open the year at Triple-A Norfolk, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old lefty has the stuff to be a dominant reliever (big fastball, power slider), but the Orioles have very few high-upside starting pitching prospects in their system, so they will shoot for the moon with Scott. He notched a 2.22 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 87 strikeouts in 69 innings at Double-A last season, but he was held to three innings per start. Developing a quality third pitch and sufficient command will be imperative for him to make it as a starter.

Scott made his MLB debut Wednesday against Boston, allowing a pair of runs on two hits and two walks while striking out one in an eventful eighth inning.

EDGE Analysis

In his first big-league game, the left-hander unveiled a 100 mph fastball, and a devastating slider that got Deven Marrero swinging and missing on three straight pitches. A broken bat single and a slow reaction by Scott to cover first base led to some avoidable damage. Manager Buck Showalter was pleased with the prospects overall outing, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports. "As advertised," Showalter said." About like I thought it would be. The slider has come a long way for him. ... His presentation was good. He didn't always show it. He's always been that type of guy. That's what's intriguing about him."

Scott, who's expected to develop into a big-league closer, said being used in a limited starter's role this season at Double-A Bowie allowed him extended time to develop his offspeed pitches, Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott's fastball typically sits in the mid-to-upper 90s, but he has no problem clocking in at triple digits routinely. Instead of using him as a minor-league reliever, the Orioles opted to start the left-hander in three-inning stints, giving Scott five or six days of rest in between. "Well, with the short starts, you can never win, but it was good. I developed my offspeed more," Scott said. "It was a good experience and I'm glad they did it and I'll see what they want me to do now."

The Orioles selected Scott's contract from Double-A Bowie on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

As planned, Scott is headed up to the big club for the first time in his career. Although he served as a starter with Bowie, where he logged a 2.22 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 24 games, it's expected that he'll work out of the bullpen during his first stint in the majors. In a corresponding move, Richard Rodriguez was designated for assignment.
