Story summary

The New York Mets placed starting pitcher Christian Scott on the 15-day injured list due to left knee inflammation, ending his season. Scott had been experiencing decreased velocity in his pitches after slipping while warming up during a recent game against Philadelphia. Meanwhile, reliever Devin Williams was activated from the IL following a right shoulder strain that kept him out since August 7. Williams signed a $51 million, three-year deal with the Mets in December and has recorded 16 saves this season despite a 4.66 ERA in 42 appearances. Scott, who had missed all of 2025 due to Tommy John surgery, finished his current season with a 3.85 ERA over 23 starts and 111 innings pitched.
