Bryson Stott aims to improve in 2025 season

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Bryson Stott is looking to improve in the 2025 season after struggling with an elbow injury in 2024. He played through the injury, which affected his performance and led to calls for him to be benched. In spring training, Stott has shown significant improvement, posting a .333 batting average with a strong walk rate of 27%. His strikeout rate has dropped to 10.8%, a notable change from previous seasons. Stott's batted ball metrics also indicate better performance compared to last year. In 2024, Stott's numbers declined, with a .245 average and 11 home runs. In contrast, he had a breakout 2023 season with a .280 average and 15 home runs. If Stott maintains his spring training success, he may play a key role for the Phillies this season.
