""It's good to see Tanner continue to throw and throw 'pens. It's just kind of trying to get a grasp on the doctors giving him the full green light, the go-ahead," Roberts said. "Today, I can't answer that question. I know that he's anxious, which is a good thing. But I think fortunately, we get to see for a couple more days how he responds to throwing and bullpens and things like that.""
"Scott endured a rough regular season in his first year with the Dodgers, posting a 4.74 ERA and 1.26 WHIP. He blew a career-high 10 saves and averaged 1.74 home runs allowed per nine innings across 61 appearances. Scott was the main option to close out games, but that has since been assumed by Roki Sasaki. The left-hander has pitched 5.1 innings in the playoffs, including 4.1 scoreless innings and seven strikeouts against the Dodgers in the 2024 NLDS."
Tanner Scott was removed from the Dodgers' postseason roster before Game 4 of the NLDS after undergoing an unexpected abscess excision on his lower body. His postseason eligibility has since been restored and he reports feeling physically capable of pitching. Manager Dave Roberts said doctors must grant full clearance and the team will monitor Scott's responses to throwing sessions and bullpens over the next few days. Scott struggled during the regular season with a 4.74 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and a career-high 10 blown saves. He has not appeared since Sept. 26 but recorded 5.1 playoff innings, including 4.1 scoreless innings and seven strikeouts in the 2024 NLDS.
