The Los Angeles Dodgers have made a strong move this offseason by signing closer Tanner Scott to a four-year deal worth $72 million, making him the top reliever available in free agency. Scott, previously with the Miami Marlins, has transformed into one of the best high-leverage pitchers, boasting a remarkable 2.04 ERA over the past two seasons and averaging 97 mph on his fastball.

Despite control issues, with a 12.2% walk rate last season, Scott's performance has attracted significant interest from teams. His role with the Dodgers may see him primarily as a closer, although competition exists within the bullpen. His signing is a pivotal addition for a team expected to contend for another World Series title.
