Tanner Scott Remains a Priority Waiver Wire Target Despite Scattered Usage
After logging 23 saves in 2025, Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Tanner Scott began the 2026 season in a setup role. However, with Dodgers closer Edwin Diaz (elbow) currently on the 60-day injured list as he recovers from elbow surgery, Scott has re-emerged as a ninth-inning option for Los Angeles. The 31-year-old's overall production has been excellent as well, as he's pitched to a 1.19 ERA and 0.62 WHIP with 27 strikeouts and four saves across 22 2/3 innings. Scott has seen some usage in the seventh and eighth innings even since Diaz hit the injured list, so fantasy managers should not expect a full-on closer workload. Still, Scott is a dominant reliever and the most likely option in the Dodgers bullpen to log saves for the time being, making him a priority waiver wire target across all league formats.
