Tanner Scott has yet to make a postseason appearance for the Los Angeles Dodgers, partly due to being removed from their playoff roster during the National League Division Series.
The Dodgers carried 12 pitchers for the NL Championship Series, but Scott was not eligible to participate following his removal from the roster before Game 4 of the NLDS. Replacing Dalton Rushing with Ben Casparius was the one roster change the Dodgers made for the NLCS.
Scott’s sudden removal was due to an unexpected abscess excision procedure on his lower body.
Now that his postseason eligibility has been restored, Scott feels physically capable of pitching and hopes to be included on the Dodgers’ World Series roster.
