Matt Kawahara of the Houston ChronicleThe Astros designated Scott for assignment Tuesday, mmm reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott was bludgeoned for five runs over 1.2 innings in his lone appearance after the Tigers had called him up Monday. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Logan VanWey.

The Astros selected Scott's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott holds a 6.66 ERA in 25.2 innings at the major-league level between stops with the Astros and Diamondbacks this season, but he'll get another chance with Houston after allowing six runs with an 11:7 K:BB over 11 frames at Sugar Land. The righty will likely be used in low-leverage spots.

Scott signed a minor-league contract with the Astros on Friday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott elected free agency Tuesday after being DFA'd by Arizona, and he'll now rejoin the organization he began the season with. The 33-year-old has noticeably regressed from last year, turning in a 6.66 ERA and 1.75 WHIP through 25.2 innings, and he'll aim to redeem himself at Triple-A Sugar Land in order to get another shot with the big club.

The Diamondbacks outrighted Scott to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott has the ability to decline the outright assignment and elect free agency, but it's not clear what his plans are. The reliever has made 23 appearances between the Astros and Diamondbacks in 2025, posting a 6.66 ERA and 23:16 K:BB across 25.2 frames.

Arizona designated Scott for assignment Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott had his contract selected from Triple-A Reno on June 10 and allowed nine runs on 13 hits with a 7:4 K:BB over nine innings spanning six appearances while with Arizona. Prior to that, he posted a 5.40 ERA across 16.2 frames as a member of the Astros. Scott's removal from the 40-man roster Saturday made room for the Diamondbacks to select the contract of fellow reliever John Curtiss from Reno.

EDGE Analysis

Scott reported to Triple-A Reno and made his organizational debut Sunday, striking out a batter in a perfect inning of relief. Before catching on with Arizona, Scott had opened the season in Houston's bullpen. He posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and 16:12 K:BB in 16.2 innings before the Astros removed him from their 40-man roster in mid-May.

Scott elected free agency Wednesday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott cleared waivers after the Astros designated him for assignment last week, but he'll choose to explore his options elsewhere rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Sugar Land.

EDGE Analysis

Scott has struggled in 2025 to replicate his success from last season, posting a 5.40 ERA and 16:12 K:BB over 16.2 frames. He had a 2.23 ERA and 71:35 K:BB across 68.2 innings in 2024, so Scott could draw interest via trade or waivers.

Scott (back) played catch in the outfield at Minute Maid Park on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott just landed on the 15-day injured list over the weekend with a thoracic spine strain, so it's a good sign that he's already throwing again. He will not be eligible to return before the end of the regular season, but the Astros are hoping to have him available as an option at some point during the playoffs.
