Dodgers Sign Top All-Star Reliever Tanner Scott to Four-Year, $72M Deal, Boosting Luxury Tax Payroll
Jan 19, 2025, 04:51 PM
The Los Angeles Dodgers have signed left-handed reliever Tanner Scott to a four-year, $72 million contract, according to multiple sources. Scott, who was considered the top reliever available in free agency, had a standout 2024 season with a 1.75 ERA and 22 saves, earning his first All-Star selection. His performance continued into the playoffs, where he was particularly effective, including striking out Shohei Ohtani four times. The deal includes a $20 million signing bonus and $21 million in deferred salary, aligning with the Dodgers' recent contract structuring strategy. This signing adds to the Dodgers' already formidable roster, which recently added Japanese phenom Roki Sasaki, and is expected to push their luxury tax payroll to approximately $375 million for the 2025 season.
