Scott

Scott was lit up to the tune of an inflated 7.90 ERA across 27 1/3 innings over 24 appearances this season between the Astros and Diamondbacks. The 33-year-old figures to get another opportunity somewhere this offseason since he compiled a stellar 2.23 ERA across a career-high 68 2/3 innings (62 appearances) for Houston back in 2024.

The 33-year-old hurler was designated for assignment on Tuesday but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will stick around to function as extra bullpen depth for the Astros for the time being. Scott has posted a 7.90 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and a 24/18 K/BB ratio over 27 1/3 innings between the Astros and Diamondbacks this season.

Scott was shellacked for five runs over 1 2/3 innings, and the Astros will boot him from both the active and 40-man roster as punishment. The 33-year-old will hit the waiver wire, and there isn’t likely to be a ton of interest.

Scott returns to Houston’s relief corps after bouncing around between a couple different organizations this season. The well-traveled 33-year-old compiled a stellar 2.23 ERA across a career-high 68 2/3 innings (62 appearances) last year for the Astros. He’ll operate in low-leverage spots.

The 33-year-old right-hander elected free agency earlier in the week after refusing an outright assignment to Triple-A Reno from the Diamondbacks. Scott had posted a 9.00 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and a 7/4 K/BB ratio over nine innings in six appearances out of the D’Backs’ bullpen. He’ll add extra depth for the Astros at the Triple-A level.

Scott will remain with Arizona as extra organizational relief depth on the doorstep of the majors. The 33-year-old passed through waivers over the weekend after being designated for assignment after just six appearances for the Diamondbacks.

The 33-year-old right-hander struggled in his couple of weeks with the Diamondbacks, registering a 9.00 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and a 7/4 K/BB ratio over nine innings in his six appearances. Given the overall lack of quality bullpen depth around the league, Scott may pique another team’s interest on waivers.

Scott joins Arizona’s relief mix ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Mariners just a handful of days after signing a minor league deal with the club. The well-traveled 33-year-old reliever was jettisoned by the Astros last month after struggling to a bloated 5.40 ERA across 16 2/3 innings (17 appearances).

Scott fortifies Arizona’s relief depth at Triple-A Reno just a few days after being cut loose by the Astros. The 33-year-old journeyman posted an underwhelming 5.40 ERA across 16 2/3 innings (17 appearances) this season in Houston. He’ll likely factor into the Diamondbacks’ middle relief mix at some point this summer.

Scott has opted to pursue his alternatives on the open market instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Sugar Land. The 32-year-old compiled a pedestrian 5.40 ERA across 16 2/3 innings (17 appearances) this season for the Astros. He should be able to latch on somewhere else as organizational relief depth.
