"The Los Angeles Dodgers will be without left-handed pitcher Tanner Scott for the National League Championship Series after he underwent an abscess incision this week in his lower body. More news: Dodgers NLCS Schedule Revealed - When Does LA Play in Next Round? Since Scott was removed from the team's NL Division Series roster, he's ineligible to be on the NLCS roster. He would, however, be eligible to be on the World Series roster if LA were to make it that far."
"Manager Dave Roberts didn't close the door on Scott potentially being on the World Series roster when speaking about his injury on Thursday. "I still feel that the World Series - if we're fortunate enough to get there, earn our way there - then he'll be available," Roberts said ahead of NLDS Game 4. General manager Brandon Gomes provided a slightly more in-depth timeline for Scott's return, which lines up with Roberts' thinking."
Tanner Scott underwent an abscess incision in his lower body and will be unavailable for the National League Championship Series after being removed from the Dodgers' NL Division Series roster, rendering him ineligible for the NLCS roster. Manager Dave Roberts indicated Scott could be available for the World Series if the team advances. General manager Brandon Gomes estimated a seven-day to two-week recovery window, which would align with the Oct. 24 World Series start date. Team staff noticed the issue during a Tuesday evening workout before it worsened and required a procedure. Scott posted a 4.74 ERA in 61 appearances and led the league with 10 blown saves.
