Dodgers' Dave Roberts Addresses Tanner Scott's Struggles to Start Season
Briefly

Tanner Scott, acquired by the Los Angeles Dodgers for four years at $72 million, is not performing to expectations this season, holding a 3.28 ERA and experiencing four blown saves. Manager Dave Roberts shows faith in Scott's abilities, noting his quality stuff but acknowledging mistakes lead to hits. With a high workload, Scott needs to improve to support a struggling Dodgers bullpen, particularly as they face competitive teams like the Guardians and Yankees. His early-season performance raises concerns about potential impact in October for the Dodgers.
Manager Dave Roberts, reflecting on Tanner Scott's performance, stated, "I think the stuff is still good. It's just right now, it just seems like when there is a mistake, they find some outfield grass...".
Scott, despite returning a 3.28 ERA and having 10 saves in 14 opportunities, has allowed nine earned runs and 22 hits across 24.2 innings, indicating room for improvement.
