The external-field QCD Sum Rules method is used to evaluate the coupling constants of the light-isoscalar scalar meson (``sigma or epsilon) to the Lambda, Sigma, and Xi baryons. It is shown that these coupling constants as calculated from QCD Sum Rules are consistent with SU(3)-flavor relations, which leads to a determination of the F/(F+D) ratio of the scalar octet assuming ideal mixing: we find alpha_s equiv F/(F+D)=0.55. The coupling constants with SU(3) breaking effects are also discussed.
