Mets' Christian Scott: Set for hybrid elbow procedure
Christian Scott's (elbow) agent, Nate Heisler, announced Wednesday via social media that the right-hander will undergo a traditional Tommy John surgery combined with an internal brace early next week.Scott was placed on the 15-day injured list shortly after the All-Star break with a UCL sprain in his right elbow, but the New York Mets had initially been optimistic that the 25-year-old would be able to avoid surgery and make a late-season return. He was cleared to start throwing off flat ground in late August and advanced to throwing bullpen sessions earlier this month, but Scott appears to have hit a snag in his recovery that has prompted him to get surgery. Since Scott is set to undergo a hybrid procedure involving the internal brace, he may have a slightly speedier recovery than if he had opted for Tommy John surgery alone, but he's still likely to miss the entire 2025 season.

Mets' Christian Scott: Nearing throwing program
Manager Carlos Mendoza said Tuesday that Christian Scott (elbow) will likely be cleared to begin a throwing program withing the next several days, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.Scott was expected to be shut down from throwing for two weeks once he landed on the injured list July 23 with a UCL sprain in his right elbow, so Mendoza's comments suggest that the 25-year-old remains on schedule in his recovery. A clear return timeline for the right-hander likely won't emerge until his throwing program ramps up, though a best-case scenario probably wouldn't see him rejoin the New York Mets' rotation until September.

Mets' Christian Scott: Won't undergo elbow surgery yet
Christian Scott plans to treat the UCL sprain in his right elbow with rest and rehab with the hope of returning from the 15-day injured list later this season, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.According to Will Sammon of The Athletic, Scott will initially be shut down for two weeks before being re-evaluated. Though UCL sprains are often a precursor to Tommy John surgery or a similar arm operation down the road, Scott told Abbey Mastracco of the New York Daily News that he dealt with the same injury in the minors last season and was able to return to action in 21 days. The New York Mets are likely to act more conservatively with Scott's injury this time around, and a September return probably represents a best-case scenario for the rookie even if he's cleared to resume throwing following the two-week shutdown period.

Mets' Christian Scott: Lands on IL with sprained elbow
The New York Mets placed Christian Scott on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a UCL sprain in his right elbow.The severity of the sprain is not known at this time, but it's an injury that can lead to Tommy John surgery. Even if an operation isn't required, the young right-hander is likely to miss significant time. Scott has not been as sharp since rejoining the Mets' rotation earlier this month, posting a 5.49 ERA and 14:6 K:BB over 19.2 innings covering four starts. Kodai Senga (shoulder) is set to rejoin the rotation later this week, so the Mets could just revert to a standard five-man setup while Scott is out.
