Scott went 2-for-3 with a walk, a three-run home run and a stolen base in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
He then went 1-for-4 with an RBI in the nightcap. Scott's homer in the matinee came in the ninth inning off Alexis Diaz, kicking off a back-to-back-to-back set of long balls for the Cards that broke open a 1-0 contest. The blast was the second of the season for the 24-year-old center fielder, while the steal was his 10th in 10 attempts over 28 games, to go along with a .271/.336/.406 slash line.

Scott is not in the Cardinals' starting lineup against the Brewers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Brewers are sending southpaw Jose Quintana to the mound, so Scott will begin Sunday's contest in the dugout while the Cardinals start Brendan Donovan, Lars Nootbaar and Jordan Walker in the outfield. Scott has gone 9-for-33 (.273) with two walks, four stolen bases, six runs scored and three RBI over his last 10 games.

Scott went 3-for-4 with a double, a run, two RBI and a stolen base in a loss to Atlanta on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Scott came into Monday having gone just 5-for-31 with no RBI over his previous 10 games, but he broke out with his first multi-hit performance since April 8. The speedy outfielder also notched his eighth theft of the season, which is tied for second in MLB. Despite his recent slump, the Cardinals have stuck with Scott in an everyday role, and he's held his own overall with a .264/.325/.375 slash line through 81 plate appearances.

Scott went 2-for-5 with a triple, a double and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Scott ignited the scoring for the Cardinals with a two-run triple in the third and then came around to score before the inning ended. Scott was moved up to the leadoff spot and did not look intimidated, even against the almighty Paul Skenes, as the lefty speedster had three batted balls with exit velocities over 96 mph. He's already collected four multi-hit games, something he was only able to do five times in 53 games last season.

Scott is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Scott will head to the bench for the first time all season after he started each of the first nine games in center field while slashing .281/.368/.406 with a home run and four stolen bases across 38 plate appearances. Mike Siani will get a look in center field Monday, but Scott remains the Cardinals' clear top option at the position.

Scott went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and a stolen base in Sunday's win over Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Scott put the Cardinals on the board with a three-run shot in the second inning and later stole second base after reaching on a fielder's choice. The 24-year-old outfielder struggled to the tune of a .502 OPS through 155 MLB plate appearances as a rookie in 2024. He played his way onto the Opening Day roster with a 1.172 OPS in spring training and has already shown some flashes to start the 2025 campaign with three stolen bases and a home run through three games.

Scott went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old outfielder picked up his first hits and first steals of 2025 after an 0-for-4 showing Thursday. Scott is getting another chance to prove he's the Cardinals' center fielder of the future, so he'll likely have a long leash, but plate discipline remains his biggest obstacle -- he's already struck out three times in eight at-bats to begin the season after posting a 6:42 BB:K in 53 games during his big-league debut last year.

Scott will be the Cardinals' Opening Day center fielder, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Scott had a difficult time during his first taste of the majors last year, posting a .179/.219/.283 slash line with two homers, 10 RBI, 14 runs and five stolen bases over 155 plate appearances. He did look better during his second call-up last summer and shined in spring training this year, registering a .366/.469/.756 slash line with four home runs, seven RBI, 11 runs and five thefts in 15 Grapefruit League contests. The big numbers in exhibition play pushed Scott ahead of Michael Siani for the starting role in center field, and Scott should now be a hot commodity in fantasy, especially given his potential to steal loads of bases -- he posted a 99th percentile sprint speed last season and swiped 95 bags in the minors in 2023.

Scott socked a solo home run, drew a walk and scored a pair of runs Friday versus the Astros in Grapefruit League play.
EDGE Analysis
The home run was Scott's fourth of the spring, which ties him for the team lead. He's also stolen five bases while collecting a 9:8 K:BB. Scott has done all he can to secure the Cardinals' center field job, but it remains possible that he begins the year back at Triple-A Memphis. Michael Siani and Lars Nootbaar are also in the running for reps in center field with St. Louis.
