Scott will be 29 years old next season. It is rare for a minor leaguer of that age to be considered a contender for a ML roster spot. It would be even more unusual to be slotted as a starter. Absent an injury on the Astros' roster which would allow him to perform at the ML level, Scott's window of opportunity to start may pass. Otherwise, I would think he would be viewed as a possible reserve outfielder in the future.
