Mets rookie Christian Scott to undergo Tommy John surgery, out until 2026

Associated Press  

NEW YORK — Mets rookie right-hander Christian Scott is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery next week and is expected to miss the entire 2025 season. Scott hasn’t pitched since July 21 due to a sprained ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow but hoped to return this month to the Mets, who entered Wednesday night two games ahead of Atlanta for the last National League playoff spot. “That’s why we waited — he gave it a try because if this was the decision, we knew he was going to be done anyway.” The 25-year-old Scott began throwing off a mound late last month but said Wednesday he had a difficult time ramping up his off-speed pitches. We decided this is the best decision moving forward.” Scott will have a hybrid version of Tommy John surgery in which he has the traditional ligament replacement while also adding an internal brace.
