The New York Mets place pitcher Christian Scott on the injured list, ending his season, and activate reliever Devin Williams for the final games of the schedule, according to reports. Scott, a 27-year-old starter, is unavailable to pitch from the roster move.
Both outlets frame the transaction as a late-season roster adjustment, with Williams returning to help the Mets in upcoming games. While the sources agree on Scott being moved to the IL and Williams being activated, they focus on different aspects of the change: the Winnipeg Free Press emphasizes that Scott’s season is effectively over and that Williams is set for the “final few games,” while Yahoo Sports similarly reports Scott’s season closure and the activation of Williams.
The moves are presented as routine injury-management and bullpen reinforcement rather than a trade or other personnel shakeup, with timing tied to the end of the regular season.
