Dodgers Reliever Tanner Scott Struggles Amid Bullpen Injuries

News summary

Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Tanner Scott has struggled recently, posting a 4.72 ERA and blowing multiple save opportunities, leading Dodgers manager Dave Roberts to acknowledge the team currently has no dedicated closer. Scott himself admitted he has not been hitting his locations, contributing to the bullpen's difficulties amid numerous injuries to key relievers like Evan Phillips and Kirby Yates. Despite offseason speculation, Scott revealed that the New York Yankees never seriously pursued him, opting instead for Devin Williams in a December trade, who was expected to fill the Yankees' closer role but has also underperformed. The Dodgers face bullpen challenges with limited alternatives, relying on inexperienced pitchers to cover innings while hoping injured relievers return. Meanwhile, the Yankees nearly missed signing Paul Goldschmidt in the offseason but now benefit from his strong offensive performance, which has been a key factor in their success this season. Both teams continue to navigate roster and performance challenges as they contend in the current MLB season.
