Newsbreakers
October 15, 2009
According to MLB.com, the Dodgers have added reliever Scott Elbert to their NLCS roster.
Our View:
Hiroki Kuroda made the cut as well, but Jon Garland and Jeff Weaver were snubbed. Elbert gives LA a third southpaw out of the pen to combat a lefty-heavy Phillies lineup. It's surprising that Weaver wasn't left on though, considering his postseason success in the past.
August 8, 2009
The Dodgers have optioned left-handed pitcher Scott Elbert to Triple-A.
Our View:
Elbert was named as Jason Schmidt's replacement in the starting rotation yesterday, but now finds himself heading back to the minors. Looks like Joe Torre had second thoughts. The Dodgers may now being trying to make a move for pitching help before the waiver deadline expires.
August 7, 2009
Scott Elbert will move from the Dodgers bullpen and take the injured Jason Schmidt's place in the rotation, according to the Associated Press.
Our View:
Elbert has posted a 3.77 ERA in 14.1 innings in the bullpen this season, but never started a major league game. The Dodgers played with fire not getting an arm at the deadline, and now that decision will be put to the ultimate stress test.
July 30, 2009
Scott Elbert has been recalled by the Dodgers from Triple-A, according to TSN. Lefty reliever Brent Leach was sent down to make room on the roster.
Our View:
Elbert holds a 3.97 ERA and 1.24 WHIP over 11.1 innings of relief this season. He will see action out of the bullpen during his latest stint with Los Angeles, but his fantasy value is limited to leagues that feature middle men.
July 20, 2009
Updating an earlier report, Scott Elbert has been sent down to Triple-A by the Dodgers to make room for Jason Schmidt on the roster, according to TSN.
Our View:
Elbert has been pitching well as a reliever, but holds no fantasy value for now while working in the minors.
July 20, 2009
Scott Elbert is off to a good start as a reliever with the Dodgers, according to the Los Angeles Times. He has thrown five shutout innings over three appearances since being recalled last week, and he said, "I feel good, just trying to stay within myself, keep the ball down and get ahead of guys and let my pitches work for me instead of trying to do too much."
Our View:
Elbert was working to be a starting pitcher in the minors, but is embracing his role as a reliever with Los Angeles right now. He is worth consideration for NL-only leagues that feature middle men.
June 4, 2009
Scott Elbert fanned 10 in six innings for Double-A Chattanooga on Thursday. He allowed three hits, two runs and walked four.
Our View:
The Dodgers tried Elbert as a reliever last season and early this season, but they have converted him back to starting at Double-A since his demotion. The lefty has a 3.55 ERA in 45.2 innings, including 59 strikeouts. At age 23, he still has plenty of long-term upside for fantasy owners.
April 30, 2009
Scott Elbert has been optioned to Chattanooga by the Dodgers, according to the Los Angeles Daily News.
Our View:
Elbert failed to impress over 6.1 innings of relief with the Dodgers this season, as he allowed five earned runs (three homers) and 10 hits. Cory Wade will be activated from the DL, and Elbert was sent down to make room.
April 18, 2009
Scott Elbert has been recalled by the Dodgers from Double-A Chattanooga, according to the Los Angeles Daily News. The club placed Cory Wade (shoulder) on the 15-day DL as the corresponding move.
Our View:
Elbert will provide depth in the Dodgers' bullpen while Wade is out, but he is not expected to hold much fantasy value.
March 28, 2009
The L.A. Daily News reports that the Dodgers have sent pitcher Scott Elbert to the minors.
Our View:
Elbert had a 5.40 ERA in 8.1 innings this spring. He was likely too wild for the Dodgers' taste, having walked five batters during his time.
