Sitting against southpaw
Stott is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.
Analysis
As is usually the case, the left-handed-hitting Stott will bow out of the lineup Wednesday while the Phillies oppose a lefty starter (Jeffrey Springs). Edmundo Sosa will cover second base in Stott's stead.

Finding power stroke
Stott went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 9-1 win over the A's.
Analysis
The second baseman has had a rough start to the campaign, but Stott appears to be finding a groove. All three of his homers on the year have come in the last five games, and while he's batting just .206 (7-for-34) over the last 10 contests, six of his seven hits have gone for extra bases. Stott's .232 BABIP is more than 50 points lower than his career mark, so if his luck turns on that front and he maintains his current power surge, a big breakout could be on the horizon.

Swats three-run homer Sunday
Stott went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Marlins.
Analysis
Stott is finally beginning to emerge from his season-long slump a bit. The second baseman hit his second three-run jack of the month of May already, but he still has a lot of work to do in order to improve his numbers. Through his first 97 at-bats, Stott is hitting just .206 with six extra-base hits, 11 RBI, eight runs scored and six stolen bases.

Cracks first homer Friday
Stott went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, one walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 6-5 win over the Marlins.
Analysis
With the Phillies nursing a 3-1 lead in the top of the seventh inning, Stott took lefty reliever Cade Gibson deep for his first homer of the season to put Philadelphia up by five. It's been a struggle at the plate for Stott through the first month-plus of the season, as he's now slashing just .211/.268/.311 with the one long ball, eight RBI, seven runs scored, six stolen bases and a 6:18 BB:K across 99 plate appearances. He has just three multi-hit games all season.
