Dave Roberts Reveals Latest Tyler Glasnow Injury Update 

Glasnow, 32, is in his third season with the Dodgers after being acquired from the Tampa Bay Rays in December 2023 and signing a five-year, $115 million extension through 2027.

The right-hander was off to one of the best starts of his career before the injury interrupted his season. In seven starts, he compiled a 3-0 record with a 2.72 ERA and 49 strikeouts across 39 2/3 innings pitched.

Glasnow departed a start against the Houston Astros on May 6 after just one inning because of acute lower back spasms and was placed on the 15-day injured list two days later. Multiple attempts to resume throwing in late May and early June triggered additional spasms, forcing a complete shutdown.

The Dodgers transferred him to the 60-day injured list on June 6. Because of that designation, Glasnow remains ineligible for activation until early August.

Before returning to a major league mound, Glasnow must progress through bullpen sessions, face live batters, and complete a minor league rehab assignment.

His absence has forced Los Angeles to rely more heavily on younger starters and depth options while managing several rotation injuries. The Dodgers have remained atop the National League West despite those setbacks, but adding an established frontline starter would significantly strengthen the pitching staff for the second half.

The Dodgers entered Monday with a 54-30 record, holding an 11-game lead over the San Diego Padres in the National League West. Glasnow's eventual return would give manager Dave Roberts another proven arm alongside the club's veteran starters as Los Angeles looks to secure another division title and prepare for October.

Roberts did not offer a timeline for Glasnow's return, but Monday's update marks the first significant step toward getting one of the Dodgers' top starters back later this season.
