The Cardinals assigned Scott to the Palm Beach Cardinals of the Single–A Florida State League in 2022. Scott began the 2023 season with the Peoria Chiefs of the High-A Midwest League and was promoted to the Springfield Cardinals of the Double-A Texas League in June. Scott was chosen to represent the Cardinals at the 2023 All-Star Futures Game. After the season, he played for the Scottsdale Scorpions of the Arizona Fall League. After the season, Scott won one of the three Rawlings Gold Glove Awards given out to the best defensive players in the minor leagues.

After a shoulder injury to starting center fielder Dylan Carlson that put him on the injured list for a few weeks, Scott was the center fielder on Opening Day for the Cardinals.
