""I think it's just 'Be willing to be unpredictable,'" Roberts said of the challenge for Scott this year. "He has a good fastball. But I think there's a comfort level of being predictable with his fastball location.""
""I tried doing something that I didn't normally do, and I didn't play to my strengths," Scott explained. "The past two years, and the past two years before that were really good, and I kind of got away from that.""
""So, to use the other side of the plate, understand when to use the slider - the stuff is there, so that for me is the growth part.""
Tanner Scott, a pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, had a challenging 2025 season with a 4.74 ERA and 10 blown saves. He faced injuries, including elbow inflammation and an abscess procedure, which affected his postseason. Scott struggled with pitch placement, allowing batters to capitalize on mistakes. Manager Dave Roberts emphasized the need for Scott to be unpredictable with pitch location. Scott acknowledged his past success and expressed a desire to return to his strengths. He has shown promising progress in Spring Training, not allowing an earned run in 6.1 innings.
