Dodgers’ Tyler Glasnow Declares Shoulder Fine After Back Concern, Eyes Playoff Return

Overview

  • Glasnow downplayed post-bullpen back tightness from his May 23 workout, saying he feels “totally normal” and plans another mound session this week.
  • His shoulder inflammation on April 27 led to a move from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list on May 31, delaying his return timeline.
  • He’s collaborating with Dodgers trainers and biomechanical experts to merge natural throwing instincts with delivery adjustments aimed at reducing stress on his shoulder.
  • With four starters on the injured list, the Dodgers added veteran right-hander José Ureña and adjusted Triple-A rosters to reinforce their rotation depth.
  • While no firm date has been set, Glasnow remains optimistic that his cautious build-up will allow him to rejoin the rotation in time for the playoff stretch.
