Tanner Scott Remains a Must-Add Closer on the Waiver Wire
Across 31 innings (33 games) in 2026, Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Tanner Scott has recorded a 2.32 ERA, 0.71 WHIP, 38 strikeouts, and nine saves. The 31-year-old began the season in a setup role, but he has emerged as the team's preferred option in the ninth inning with Dodgers closer Edwin Diaz (elbow) currently working his way back from elbow surgery. While Diaz is expected to return this season, he's unlikely to be back in the big leagues until after the All-Star break. Scott has been more than capable as a stand-in, averaging 96.7 miles per hour on his fastball and logging a dominant 30.7% K-BB rate. Until Diaz returns, Scott profiles as a must-start closer for fantasy managers. In any league where he remains available on the waiver wire, Scott profiles as a priority target.
