Diamondbacks
The Arizona Diamondbacks are reportedly interested in acquiring reliever Tanner Scott from the Baltimore Orioles. Scott, 26, has a 3.38 ERA with 10.0 strikeouts per nine innings this season. He would be a valuable addition to the Diamondbacks’ bullpen, which has struggled at times this season.
Mariners
The Seattle Mariners are also reportedly interested in Scott. The Mariners have been looking for a reliever to add to their bullpen, and Scott would be a good fit. He has a good fastball and slider, and he can get strikeouts.
Other Teams
In addition to the Diamondbacks and Mariners, several other teams are reportedly interested in Scott. The Chicago Cubs, Los Angeles Dodgers, and San Diego Padres are all said to be in the mix.
Trade Value
Scott is expected to be traded before the August 2 trade deadline. He is under team control through the 2024 season, so he would be a good addition to any team. The Orioles are reportedly asking for a good prospect in return for Scott.
Conclusion
Tanner Scott is one of the most sought-after relievers on the trade market. He is a young, talented pitcher who can get strikeouts. He would be a valuable addition to any team’s bullpen.
Kind regards,
