Tyler Glasnow's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-hander Tyler Glasnow's (elbow) bullpen session went well on Tuesday and now expects him to throw two to three simulated innings in Atlanta this weekend. After several successful bullpen sessions, Glasnow is taking the next step to face live hitters, and if all goes well this weekend, the 31-year-old could be cleared to return to LA's starting rotation without going on a minor-league rehab start. It's progress for Glasnow, but fantasy managers still playing for something through the rest of the regular season may want to temper expectations for the dominant right-hander, as the Dodgers could limit his workload to make absolutely sure that he's in tip-top shape for the start of the postseason in October. Maintaining his health the rest of the year is of utmost importance for a Dodgers rotation that has its fair share of injury issues in 2024.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Tuesday, and if that goes well, he will throw a simulated game on Friday, according to manager Dave Roberts. Glasnow threw a 25-pitch bullpen session over the weekend on Saturday and is ready for another bullpen before facing live hitters later this week. Beyond Glasnow's simulated game on Friday, the next step for him should be to go on a minor-league rehab assignment. Fantasy managers still playing for something with several weeks to go in the season may not get more than a start or two the rest of the way, as the Dodgers aren't going to rush the dominant right-hander back too soon and jeopardize his availability for the postseason. Glasnow has had a fine first season in LA, going 9-6 with a 3.49 ERA, a 0.95 WHIP and 168 strikeouts in 134 innings over 22 starts.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) played catch up to 120 feet again on Tuesday and said he will probably be ready to throw off a mound on Friday or Saturday when the team returns home to Dodger Stadium. In a "best-case scenario," manager Dave Roberts said last weekend that Glasnow could return to the big-league rotation in the middle of September. But the 31-year-old hard-throwing right-hander has already been on the injured twice in his first year in LA, and the Dodgers would prefer to have him firing on all cylinders once the postseason begins in October. He's currently dealing with right-elbow tendinitis, and the Dodgers aren't going to rush him back. Glasnow is going to require a minor-league rehab assignment before he returns, which means he probably will only provide fantasy managers with one or two more starts the rest of the way.

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow, out with elbow tendinitis since August 16th, shared with reporters today that he is "very confident" of a return before the end of the regular season. The veteran stated that his "priority"is to be ready for the postseason. Glasnow is 9-6 with a 3.49 ERA, a 0.95 WHIP, and 168 strikeouts in 134 innings. The goal remains to be ready to pitch by mid-September. Glasnow reported that he has played catch without incident both Friday and Saturday and that a rehab assignment could be forthcoming. The timeline suggests that Glasnow could make three starts for the Dodgers before the end of the season if all goes smoothly.

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) will resume playing catch on Friday, and the team is "hopeful" that he can return before the end of the season. The Dodgers never considered Glasnow's right-elbow injury to be serious, but the 31-year-old hasn't bounced back the way they had hoped, putting his availability in question for the final month of the regular season in question. It's good news that Glasnow will resume throwing on Friday, but it doesn't mean that fantasy managers stashing him will get much use out of him to close things out in 2024. At this point, LA's primary objective is to have him stretched out and healthy for the postseason in October. In his first year in LA, Glasnow was a first-time All-Star with a dominant 32.4% strikeout rate while going 9-6 with a 3.49 ERA and 0.95 WHIP in 22 starts (134 innings).
