Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Tanner Scott, Los Angeles Dodgers left-handed reliever, is experiencing a remarkable bounce-back season in 2026 after a disappointing 2025 debut year with the team. After signing a 4-year, $72 million contract, Scott struggled in his first season with a 4.74 ERA in 57 innings. However, in 2026, he has been dominant with a 1.47 ERA and 0.60 WHIP across 18.1 innings. With Edwin Diaz sidelined due to elbow surgery, Scott has assumed closing duties and recorded 4 saves, including 3 in his last 5 appearances. His underlying metrics are exceptional: 99th percentile walk rate (3.1%), 46.9% chase percentage, elite stuff with a blazing fastball and sharp slider, and a 24.6% K-BB rate. Scott is demonstrating veteran-like precision combined with elite stuff, making him a must-roster closer in fantasy formats.
