Christian Scott Picks Up First Career Win in Strong Marlins Outing

The 26-year-old Mets starter is finding his footing after missing all of 2025 to Tommy John surgery, flashing swing-and-miss stuff in a 6-1 win.

Christian Scott recorded his first MLB win in his 16th career start, allowing one run with eight strikeouts over five innings against Miami. The right-hander missed the entire 2025 season recovering from Tommy John surgery before returning this year. Across seven starts in 2025, Scott carries a 2.97 ERA and 38 strikeouts, signaling a strong post-surgery return. Manager Carlos Mendoza praised the outing and expressed confidence Scott will continue contributing to the rotation.
