Scott (lower body) is not on the Dodgers' World Series roster.

EDGE Analysis

Scott underwent a lower-body abscess procedure earlier this month and has not made an appearance this postseason. The reliever had resumed throwing and was hopeful of being added to the roster for the Fall Classic, but the Dodgers have ultimately decided against it.

Scott (lower body) has been throwing and hopes to be included on the Dodgers' World Series roster, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scott has not made an appearance this postseason after undergoing a lower-body abscess procedure earlier this month. It's unclear whether he will be built back up enough to be included on the roster for the World Series, which begins Friday. Scott paced the Dodgers with 23 saves during the regular season, but he had an up-and-down campaign, finishing with a 4.74 ERA and 60:18 K:BB over 57 frames.

Scott (lower body) was replaced on the Dodgers' postseason roster by Justin Wrobleski on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Scott has yet to make an appearance in the postseason, and manager Dave Roberts revealed Thursday that the 31-year-old reliever underwent a lower-body abscess procedure Wednesday, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Scott's removal from the NLDS roster will also make him ineligible to pitch in the NLCS if the Dodgers advance, and his availability for a potential World Series berth remains unknown.

Manager Dave Roberts said after Wednesday's loss against Philadelphia in Game 3 of the NLDS that Scott wasn't available due to personal reasons, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Roberts didn't provide any details on when Scott may return, so it seems the Dodgers' bullpen will have to work around being slightly shorthanded for the time being. The 31-year-old lefty gave up six earned runs over 8.1 innings across the final month of the regular season and has yet to appear in a game this postseason.

Scott gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless ninth inning Friday to record his 23rd save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Mariners. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

The left-hander has looked a little more stable over the last couple weeks, giving up runs in only one of his last seven appearances. Scott has still blown three of seven save chances since returning from elbow inflammation in late August however, stumbling to a 7.15 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and 10:7 K:BB in 11.1 innings over that span, and the Dodgers have plenty of other high-leverage relief options if those struggles resurface in the playoffs -- including Roki Sasaki, who struck out two in a scoreless seventh inning Friday to collect his second hold and topped out at 100.1 mph with his fastball.

Scott (1-4) allowed two runs on a hit, a walk and a hit batsman over two-thirds of an inning, taking a blown save and the loss Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

EDGE Analysis

Scott was tasked with protecting a one-run lead in the ninth inning and couldn't get the job done. He entered Tuesday with a four-inning scoreless streak, but much of that had come in lower-leverage spots after his struggles in late August and early September. Over his last 10 outings, the southpaw has allowed nine runs with a 7:6 K:BB in 7.1 innings while converting just two of five save chances. He's now at a 4.91 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 57:17 K:BB across 55 innings while converting 22 of 32 save opportunities. Manager Dave Roberts hasn't made a change at the back of his bullpen yet, but if Scott is removed from the closer role, Alex Vesia could get more save chances.

Scott allowed a hit and a walk while striking out two over a scoreless inning to earn the save in Friday's 6-3 win over the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Scott has posted four straight scoreless outings to follow a five-outing stretch in which he gave up seven runs across 2.2 innings. This was his first save since Sept. 8 -- Alex Vesia converted one Thursday, but the Dodgers haven't been in many close games over the last two weeks. Overall, Scott is now 22-for-31 in save chances this year while adding eight holds with a 4.64 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 57:16 K:BB through 54.1 innings. He needs one more save over the Dodgers' last eight games to set a career high.

Scott allowed one hit in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Monday's 3-1 win over the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Scott's been in a rough patch lately, allowing four runs over his last 1.2 innings while taking a loss and two blown saves in that span. Despite the struggles, manager Dave Roberts looks to be sticking by his closer, who was able to get the job done Monday for his 21st save in 30 chances this season. Scott is at a 4.47 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 52:12 K:BB over 50.1 innings on the year, and he remains in control of the closer role, though he could face a threat to his save share when Alex Vesia (oblique) returns Tuesday.

Scott blew the save in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Orioles, allowing two inherited runners to score on one hit without recording an out in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

While Blake Treinen was ultimately charged with three runs and the loss, Scott gave up a walk-off double to the only batter he faced. After looking sharp in his first two outings back from an elbow injury that sidelined him for a month, the southpaw has now blown a save or taken a loss in three straight appearances. He's converted 20 of 29 save chances this season while posting a 4.56 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 52:12 K:BB across 49.1 innings.

Scott (1-3) took the loss Friday, serving up a walk-off solo home run to Samuel Basallo in the ninth inning of a 2-1 loss to the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

The southpaw was brought in to get the game to extra innings, but after striking out Emmanuel Rivera and Dylan Beavers, Scott grooved a 98.7 mph fastball to Baltimore's young phenom and watched it sail 433 feet over the fence in right-center field. Scott has been treated like the Dodgers' closer since returning from elbow inflammation in late August, but in four appearances he's been tagged for two homers and four runs total over 3.2 innings, blowing one of two save chances in addition to taking the loss Friday. The team has plenty of other high-leverage options to handle ninth-inning duties if Scott continues to struggle.
