On Sunday, the Los Angeles Dodgers played the final game of their series with the Baltimore Orioles (at home).
The Dodgers lost by a score of 12-1 (and dropped two out of three in the series).
Despite the loss, they are still at the top of the National League West with a 49-29 record in 78 games.
Dodger Would Reportedly Make Bonus If Traded
Tanner Scott is currently in the middle of his second season playing for the Dodgers.
With the season well underway (and trade rumors picking up), it’s worth noting that Scott reportedly has a $3 million trade kicker in his contract.

It’s unlikely that Scott would get traded, but still worth pointing out.
The 2024 MLB All-Star is currently 1-3 with a 2.32 ERA (and nine saves) in 33 games.
Looking At Scott’s Career
Scott was picked in the 6th round of the 2014 MLB Draft.
He spent the first five years of his career with the Baltimore Orioles.
After Baltimore, the 31-year-old has had stops with the Miami Marlins, San Diego Padres (and Dodgers) over 10 total seasons.
Dodgers Right Now
The Dodgers have been the best team in baseball through the first half of the 2026 season.
They are already coming off a year where they won their second straight World Series title.
Following the Orioles, the Dodgers are now headed to Minnesota for a series with the Twins that starts on Monday night.
Over their last ten games, they have gone 6-4 (and they are 23-15 in 38 games on the road).
The Dodgers are looking to become the first MLB franchise to win three straight titles since the 2000 New York Yankees with Derek Jeter.
They will likely look to acquire even more depth before the trade deadline.
