Tanner Scott

Scott got the save chance after Blake Treinen nailed his, and it didn't go very well. The 30-year-old southpaw gave up three hits, including a game-tying single to Manuel Margot. Scott has looked good in his previous appearances and still should see save chances early on, but it's a disappointing result in the early portion of the campaign.

Dodgers' skipper Dave Roberts turned to Tanner Scott in the eighth inning with a couple of tough left-handed hitters coming up, which left Treinen to clean things up in the ninth. He made things interesting by allowing a leadoff single to Gleyber Torres and a one-out walk to Spencer Torkelson, but he rebounded to strike out Trey Sweeney and then got Colt Keith to pop out to end it. He's now the third different Dodgers' pitcher to record a save through the first three games of the season.

The new Dodgers closer developed and then thrived on losing teams before signing with Los Angeles over the winter.

Scott struck out one and didn't allow a baserunner in a scoreless ninth inning to record the save versus the Cubs in Tokyo on Tuesday.

Scott made quick work of the Cubs; needing just 10 pitches to get his first save of the 2025 season and first as a member of the Dodgers. The left-hander can sometimes deal with control issues -- that's an understatement -- but he threw 80 percent of his offerings for strikes in Tuesday's outing. Scott isn't guaranteed every save chance, but it seems he's going to get enough with the best team in baseball to make him a quality fantasy option.
