With his speed and hitting from the left side he should get a ton of IF hits.
Which will usually turn into doubles!

Bunting more and hitting down on the ball (keeping it on the ground more) to utilize his great speed could lead to more infield hits.

Let the power come later in his career after he's learned how to get on base!

Scott already possess elite defense and base stealing speed, those are two strong assets to build upon.

Not ready to give up on him yet like some seem ready to do.

People act like he looks as hopeless as JW up there. His issues are much more easily fixed, he basically has the opposite problem of JW and it's much easier to learn how to become a slap-hitter than a launch angle star.
VSII
.215 .304 .298 .602

M. Winn
.253 .310 .363 .673

I think VSII can get to Winn/2025 level next season and 40+ SB's.


And I see some on here ready to hand CF over to..... 8O

It really is, grasping for straws to find something positive from this squad is a real reach.
