Left-handed reliever Tanner Scott was the top free agent remaining on the market, and Boston had been poking around, but Scott agreed to a four-year, $72 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday, according to MLB insider Mark Feinsand.

The Boston Red Sox were linked to Scott in the offseason despite signing Aroldis Chapman. It’s unclear if Chapman will be Boston’s closer, but once the team signed him, Scott seemed unlikely. Scott had a dominant 2024 season that saw him amass a 1.75 ERA in 72 games between the Miami Marlins and the San Diego Padres.
