Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (back) has been activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants. The 30-year-old will make his return after missing a few weeks due to tightness in his back. This is a welcoming sight for the Dodgers who are currently without multiple starters due to injury. Before going down, Glasnow held a 3.47 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and 143/29 K/BB across 18 starts. Fantasy managers can feel comfortable getting Glasnow back in their lineups on Wednesday.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (back) is set to be activated off the injured list on Wednesday and start against the San Francisco Giants, according to Noah Camras of Dodgers Nation. The 30-year-old will likely be on a pitch count, as he only tossed 58 pitches in his recent simulated game earlier this week. Glasnow has performed exceptionally well in his first season in Los Angeles as he holds a 3.47 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and a stellar 29:143 BB:K ratio. He sports a 33.6% K rate which is one of the best marks in the sport. The right-hander should remain in all fantasy lineups and will contend for the NL Cy Young Award.
Tyler Glasnow Throws Simulated Game On Friday, Likely To Start Wednesday
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (back) threw a three-inning simulated game that featured 58 pitches at Dodger Stadium on Friday before the team's series opener against the visiting Boston Red Sox and said he'll likely come off the 15-day injured list to start on Wednesday against the division-rival San Francisco Giants. Glasnow won't need to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before returning to help a much-maligned Dodgers' starting rotation early in the second half of the season. Even though it will be his first start off the IL next week, fantasy managers will want to get the hard-throwing 30-year-old back into all starting lineups against San Fran next week. Glasnow has a 33.6% strikeout rate, which is second in the big leagues, and has gone 8-5 with a 3.47 ERA and 0.93 WHIP with 143 K's in 109 innings over 18 starts in his first year in Hollywood.
Tyler Glasnow Going On Injured List With Back Injury
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (back) is going on the 15-day injured list with a back issue, according to manager Dave Roberts. Glasnow's back tightened up on him when he played catch on Sunday, so he'll hit the shelf and rest up during next week's All-Star break. Perhaps this is why Glasnow has allowed 10 earned runs on 10 hits (one homer) while walking four and striking out eight in nine innings in his last two starts against the Giants and Brewers. The Dodgers are hopeful that Glasnow's injury isn't serious and that he can return shortly after the All-Star break, but that remains to be seen. Fantasy managers must stash him in an IL spot in all formats for the time being. Rookie Justin Wrobleski, who lost his major-league debut on Monday when he gave up four runs in five innings to Milwaukee, could be tasked with filling Glasnow's rotation spot until he's able to return.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow had seemingly no issues during Sunday's outing against the Kansas City Royals. The right-hander struck out nine batters while throwing seven shutout innings during the victory. Glasnow had strong command in this one as he only walked one batter over the course of his outing. He'll carry a 3.00 ERA and 125/25 K/BB ratio into his next start.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow tossed five innings in Thursday's loss versus the Cincinnati Reds. Glasnow struggled in the first inning with Will Benson hitting his sixth homer of the season to open up the frame and then Tyler Stephenson hitting a RBI double later in the inning. Glasnow's final line was six hits, four runs, one walk with eight strikeouts. The four runs were the most the right-hander has allowed this season and managers shouldn't worry about him have a rough outing. Glasnow will look ahead to Tuesday's start against the division rival Arizona Diamondbacks where he can look to get back on track. He remains a must-start in all matchups.
Los Angeles Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow was initially projected to make his next start on Wednesday against the San Francisco Giants, but the team is going to push it back at least a day. Glasnow has had five days off between every start he has made in 2024 and the Dodgers do not want to change things. Wednesday's contest will likely be a bullpen game or another roster move will be made. Glasnow is probable to pitch on Thursday against the Cincinnati Reds, but that has not been confirmed yet. The 30-year-old is a must-start option whenever he takes the mound next as he has been phenomenal during his first season in California.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow turned in another dominant performance in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Padres but was unable to factor into the decision. Over seven frames, the righty allowed just one hit, a solo home run off the bat of Luis Campusano, and walked two while striking out 10 batters. It was the fourth time he's struck out 10 or more batters this season, and now has a sterling 2.53 ERA (2.52 FIP), 0.86 WHIP, and an elite 26.7% K-BB%. The 30-year-old's six wins are good for second-best in the majors and he's looking like a true Cy Young contender. The former fifth-round MLB draft pick will face the Giants on the road in his next outing, whom he faced earlier this season, going six innings allowing four hits, two walks, and three earned runs while striking out seven.
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (hand) is set to make his next start on six days of rest this Saturday against the visiting Atlanta Braves. Glasnow dealt with cramping in his hand in his last start last Saturday against the Toronto Blue Jays but is good to go for a showdown against the Braves this weekend. In his first season with the Dodgers, the 30-year-old has been as advertised, going 5-1 with a 2.72 ERA (2.75 FIP) and 0.93 WHIP with 12 walks and a league-high 53 strikeouts in 43 innings over his seven starts. Despite dealing with cramping issues in his hand in Toronto last weekend, Glasnow picked up the win against the Jays by giving up just one earned run, walking three and striking out nine in six innings for his fifth win of the year. He's a must-start in fantasy this weekend despite facing the tough Braves lineup.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow (hand) exited Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays with cramping in his hand. Glasnow had a dominant start, notching nine strikeouts in six innings while giving up only one run on two hits. At 95 pitches on the day it would have been likely that he'd exit after pitching six innings anyways. Given the 30-year-old's past history with injuries this should be something to keep an eye on, but hand cramps should be easier for him to overcome and the right-hander should be considered day-to-day. If Glasnow isn't forced to miss any time, his next scheduled start is slated for next Saturday at home against the Atlanta Braves.
