His fastball is still his strikeout pitch, however, using it 48% of the time to take out righthanders and 63% of the time to wipe out lefthanders.

Paxton missed the 2022 season due to Tommy John surgery, and since returning has significantly decreased his 4-seam fastball usage. Over his seven starts, he is 3-1 with a 3.29 ERA and 51 strikeouts.

At Triple-A Oklahoma City, Scott had a 1.37 ERA in 19 games. Regardless, Lance Lynn is coming off of a historic outing on Sunday, and today will be the test. They are 0-6 in those games.- Christopher Kamka June 24, 2023 Tonight is the 6th time this season the White Sox pitching staff has recorded 15+ strikeouts (17 tonight).
