The Los Angeles Dodgers have placed right-hander Tyler Glasnow on the 15-day injured list with a shoulder issue. Glasnow was pulled early from his last start on Sunday, marking the second straight start he's been forced to exit early due to discomfort.
While the team has described the injury as “shoulder discomfort,” that term is often used to downplay more serious underlying concerns, and in Glasnow’s case, comparisons are already being made to Blake Snell’s recent shoulder injury, which also lacked structural damage but still will require an extended shutdown. The Dodgers say that no structural damage was found in Glasnow’s shoulder, but the plan is to allow for extended rest before any throwing progression begins.
According to Dr. David Chao, Pro Football Doc, Glasnow should be out for longer than his 15-day IL stint.
This setback adds to a growing list of injuries for Glasnow, who also missed the 2023 postseason with the Dodgers due to arm trouble. His current absence comes after being pulled from back-to-back starts due to physical issues a troubling sign for a pitcher with a lengthy injury history that includes Tommy John surgery and multiple forearm and elbow issues during his time in Tampa Bay.
As the Dodgers navigate a competitive NL West race, the status of their rotation will be a major storyline in the weeks ahead.
