Report: Dodgers agree to four-year, $72-million contract with Tanner Scott

The Los Angeles Dodgers continue to add talent with reckless abandon.

According to MLB Network insider Mark Feinsand, star relief pitcher Tanner Scott and the Dodgers agreed to a four-year $72-million deal on Sunday.

Scott, 30, bolsters the Dodgers’ bullpen with an elite arm from the left side. He pitched to a 1.75 ERA with 84 strikeouts and 22 saves over 72 innings split between the Miami Marlins and San Diego Padres last season.

The six-foot southpaw made his first MLB All-Star game in 2024. Prior to joining the Padres at the trade deadline last year, Scott had almost exclusively played on non-competitive teams, splitting his first seven seasons between the Marlins and Baltimore Orioles.

He will now occupy a leverage relief role on the World Series favourite.
