Tanner Scott Signs $72 Million Deal With Dodgers

The Los Angeles Dodgers have successfully signed Tanner Scott, a top reliever, to a four-year, $72 million contract, enhancing their already formidable roster. Scott, who previously struggled with the Baltimore Orioles, found success with the Miami Marlins, posting a strong 2.31 ERA in 2023. Meanwhile, former Angels closer Carlos Estevez is poised to be the best remaining relief pitcher in free agency after Scott's signing, with the Texas Rangers seen as a likely destination for him. Additionally, Jack Flaherty, another prominent free agent, is under consideration for the Dodgers but may ultimately leave for the Detroit Tigers, where he previously thrived. As the Dodgers pursue Japanese star Roki Sasaki, the future of their pitching staff remains dynamic and uncertain. Flaherty's potential departure could create an opportunity for the Tigers to bolster their rotation with a familiar face.
