Tanner Scott pitched the ninth inning of Friday's game against the Rays, walking one and striking out one. The Orioles lost, 2-1.
Fantasy Impact
Scott has had a brilliant year, pitching to a 1.33 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 22 strikeouts in 20 and 1/3 innings. He's a great option in the last week to stabilize ratios and pick up holds.
Tanner Scott pitched the ninth inning of Tuesday's game in a non-save situation, tossing a 1-2-3 inning. The Orioles won, 9-5.
Fantasy Impact
Scott got the ninth inning after manager Brandon Hyde said that Scott and Hunter Harvey would get save chances after Cole Sulser blew another save over the weekend. Scott is a groundball pitcher who induces whiffs, and is worth monitoring for potential saves.
Tanner Scott could get save chances after Cole Sulser blew this third save and took his fourth loss of the season on Sunday against the Blue Jays. Scott himself pitched a third of an inning, allowing an inherited runner to score.
Fantasy Impact
Scott has 17 strikeouts in 13 and 1/3 innings to go with a 2.03 ERA and 0.98 WHIP. If holds are a category in your league, you should pick him up with the prospect of him getting save chances as well. Otherwise, he's useful for ratios in deeper standard leagues.
Tanner Scott pitched 1 and 1/3 innings on Friday, allowing one hit and striking out three. The Orioles lost in extra innings, 6-5.
Fantasy Impact
Scott has had one bad outing this year, but has been incredible otherwise. He now has a 2.08 ERA, tiny 0.92 WHIP, and 17 strikeouts in 13 innings. Pick him up in all saves/holds leagues and enjoy the four-category value.
Tanner Scott nailed down the final out of Sunday's game against the Red Sox, but not before he allowed a two-run homer to Jackie Bradley. The Orioles escaped with a 5-4 win.
Fantasy Impact
Scott got the call to save the game because Cole Sulser had extended himself the previous day. While Scott has solid ratios (2.45 ERA and 0.82 WHIP) to go with a strong strikeout rate, the lefty likely won't see many save chances going forward.
