Overview

  • Left-handed reliever Tanner Scott was placed on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation after an MRI detected no ligament damage.
  • Former All-Star closer Alexis Diaz was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City to bolster the high-leverage relief corps.
  • Evan Phillips, Michael Kopech, Blake Treinen and Brusdar Graterol remain sidelined, further straining the Dodgers’ late-inning options.
  • Manager Dave Roberts said Scott’s absence intensifies the need for proven arms and expressed optimism about his eventual return.
  • With the July 31 trade deadline fast approaching, Los Angeles is actively pursuing veteran relievers to stabilize its bullpen.
