Every year, the Dodgers do their best to avoid buying in July. And just about every year, they end up having needs ahead of the Trade Deadline. This year is no different.

The Dodgers placed the left-hander on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation on Tuesday, recalling reliever Alexis Díaz from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move. It's the first time Scott has hit the injured list since 2021, three teams ago.

Well, they're likely not going to finish 122-40, but after a 6-0 victory over the Seattle Mariners July 21, the Brewers have won 11 straight games and suddenly have Major League Baseball's best record. That also means they've hurdled the rival Chicago Cubs in the National League Central Division standings.
