As a freshman at UNLV, Stott started all 54 games at shortstop, hitting .294/.359/.379 with one home run and 29 runs batted in (RBIs). As a sophomore in 2018, he started all 59 games, hitting .365/.442/.556 with four home runs, 32 RBI and an NCAA leading 30 doubles.[4][5] After the season, he played for the Wareham Gatemen of the Cape Cod Baseball League[6] and the United States collegiate national team.[7][8] In 2019, his junior year, he batted .356 with ten home runs and 36 RBIs over 58 games.[9]
After impressing manager Joe Girardi during spring training, Stott was named to the Phillies' Opening Day roster for the 2022 season.[23] He made his major league debut on April 8, 2022, recording a single, a double, and an RBI in the Phillies' 9–5 victory over the Oakland Athletics.[24] After not starting a game since April 18 and being hitless in his last 18 at-bats, he was optioned to Lehigh Valley on April 25 in order to receive consistent playing time.[25] After returning to the Phillies, Stott hit a walk-off three-run home run on June 5 to defeat the Los Angeles Angels.[26] Despite a slow start to the season, in which he batted .188/.255/.307, Stott heated up after the All-Star Game, hitting .276/.331/.404 in the second half of the season.
In the 2022 regular season he batted .234/.295/.358 in 427 at bats.[27] He played 83 games at shortstop, 47 at second base, and two at third base.[27]
With the departure of second baseman Jean Segura and the acquisition of shortstop Trea Turner over the offseason, Stott became the everyday second baseman for the Phillies in 2023.[28] He began the 2023 campaign by hitting safely in each of the first seventeen contests. His first-inning leadoff single to center field off Lance Lynn in a 7–4 win over the Chicago White Sox in the first game of a doubleheader at Guaranteed Rate Field on April 18 set a new Phillies record, surpassing the 16-game hit streak established in 1950 by Willie "Puddin' Head" Jones.[29] Stott appeared in 151 games in his second season in the majors, batting .280/.329/.419 with 15 home runs and 62 RBIs. In Game 2 of the 2023 National League Wild Card Series against the Miami Marlins, Stott hit his first career grand slam, and the second postseason grand slam in Phillies franchise history, joining Shane Victorino.[30]
