Tanner Scott To See Most Of The Save Opportunities
According to Jim Bowden of The Athletic, Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Tanner Scott is expected to see most of the save opportunities early in the season. Earlier in the offseason, the Dodgers signed Scott to a four-year, $72 million contract. However, the team also brought in Kirby Yates, who was one of the most dominant ninth-inning arms last season for the Texas Rangers. Given this update, fantasy managers should expect Scott to carry the most fantasy value in the bullpen early in the season. However, given how deep the Dodgers bullpen is, Scott may not be given a long leash if he struggles. Fantasy managers should expect Yates, Blake Treinen, Alex Vesia, and Michael Kopech (forearm) to be in the mix for save opportunities if Scott struggles. Last season, the southpaw posted a stellar 1.75 ERA with a 1.13 WHIP. He struck out batters at a strong 28.6 percent rate and generated an excellent 27.5 percent hard-hit rate.
