LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a> placed left-handed reliever Tanner Scott<\/a> on the 15-day injured list on Tuesday with left elbow inflammation, yet another blow to an ailing bullpen.<\/p>\n

In a corresponding move, right-hander Alexis Diaz<\/a> was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n

The Dodgers already are without late-inning relief options in right-handers Blake Treinen<\/a> (forearm), Michael Kopech<\/a> (knee) and Brusdar Graterol<\/a> (shoulder), who has yet to pitch this season. Treinen is close to a return.<\/p>\n

Just under 24 hours after Scott was removed from Monday night’s game with a forearm injury, manager Dave Roberts expressed optimism that the issue is not as bad as initially feared.<\/p>\n

Scott underwent an MRI on Tuesday, but the club did not immediately reveal the results.<\/p>\n

“Just right now, [Scott] talking to the training staff, we feel good about it,” Roberts said. “That’s better than what we thought last night and hopefully we get some good news from Dr. [Neal] ElAttrache.”<\/p>\n

Scott, who turned 31 on Tuesday, is in the first year of a four-year, $72 million contract and has struggled to a 1-2 record with a 4.14 ERA in 47 appearances. He has 19 saves and seven blown saves.<\/p>\n

Diaz, 28, was acquired in a trade with the Cincinnati Reds<\/a> on May 29 and has yet to make an appearance with the Dodgers. The 2023 National League All-Star has a 6.20 ERA in 14 combined appearances at Triple-A for Oklahoma City and Louisville. He gave up eight runs in six innings with the Reds before the trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jul 22, 2025, 09:43 PM ET LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers placed left-handed reliever Tanner Scott…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":17054,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,462,82],"class_list":["post-17053","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mlb","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17053","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17053"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17053\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17054"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17053"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17053"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17053"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
