Plays catch Tuesday Scott (back) played catch in the outfield at Minute Maid Park on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Scott just landed on the 15-day injured list over the weekend with a thoracic spine strain, so it's a good sign that he's already throwing again. He will not be eligible to return before the end of the regular season, but the Astros are hoping to have him available as an option at some point during the playoffs.
SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Shelved with spine injury The Astros placed Scott on the 15-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to Sept. 18, due to a thoracic spine strain.
Impact Scott has been uncharacteristically bad during September, logging a 6.35 ERA and a 4:5 K:BB across 5.2 innings. However, the poor performance could be attributed to the spine injury. Scott won't be eligible for activation until Oct. 3, ending his regular season, but he could return for the playoffs. Seth Martinez was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move.
