Glasnow allowed four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out eight over six-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Nationals on Saturday.
Glasnow wasn't able to keep the Nationals under control, but the Dodgers' offense picked him up in the late innings. Over three starts since he returned from back spasms, Glasnow has allowed eight runs with a 21:4 K:BB across 18 innings. He's at a 3.12 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 70:17 K:BB through 57.2 innings over 10 starts this season. The veteran right-hander is projected for a road start in Miami next weekend.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Spins seven innings of one-run ball
Rotowire
Glasnow (4-0) earned the win against the Tigers on Sunday, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out six.
Detroit scratched its lone run across in the fourth inning, but it was smooth sailing for Glasnow otherwise. The hard-throwing right-hander has made just nine appearances for the Dodgers this season due to lower-back spasms, but he's already turned in five starts with at least six innings and two runs or fewer allowed. He'll carry a 2.79 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 62:14 K:BB over 51.2 innings into his next scheduled outing at home versus the Nationals.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Fans seven in return
Rotowire
Glasnow did not factor into the decision Tuesday against Atlanta, allowing three runs on six hits while striking out seven over five innings.
Following a lengthy absence due to lower-back spasms, Glasnow made his first start since May 6. He was rocky out of the gate, allowing four singles and three runs in the first inning, but went on to blank Atlanta over his final four frames, including a stretch of five consecutive strikeouts. The right-hander's swing-and-miss stuff remained sharp despite the long layoff, as he generated 15 whiffs and has now recorded at least seven strikeouts in six of his eight starts this season. Glasnow owns a 3.02 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 56:13 K:BB across 44.2 innings and is scheduled to face St. Louis next Tuesday.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Activated ahead of Tuesday's start
Rotowire
The Dodgers activated Glasnow (back) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.
Out since early May due to lower-back spasms, Glasnow will make his long-awaited return to the Dodgers' rotation with a start Tuesday in Atlanta. The right-hander yielded looked sharp in four rehab starts, allowing two runs with a 20:4 K:BB over 13.2 innings. Glasnow went 5.1 frames and threw 77 pitches in his final rehab outing, so he could be somewhat limited from a pitch count perspective Tuesday.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Dazzles in final rehab start
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) struck out nine batters and gave up one run on one hit and one walk over 5.1 innings during a rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
The Dodgers had been targeting Glasnow for five innings and 75 pitches in the fourth start of his rehab assignment, and he was able to check both boxes with 5.1 innings and 77 pitches (54 strikes). The veteran righty generated 12 swings and misses on the night, capping off a dominant four-start rehab stint in the minors during which he submitted a 1.32 ERA, 0.51 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB in 13.2 innings. From both a workload and results standpoint, Glasnow looks ready to return to the big leagues for the first time since early May, after a lengthy recovery from lower-back spasms. He'll likely come off the 60-day injured list and make a start at some point during the Dodgers' three-game series in Atlanta, which begins Tuesday.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set for another rehab start Friday
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) will make another minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow is set to be stretched out to roughly four innings and/or 60 total pitches in the outing as the Dodgers continue to slowly ease him back into a full workload. The right-hander is then expected to throw one more rehab start following Friday's outing before Los Angeles would consider activating him from the 60-day injured list. Glasnow has been sidelined since May 8 while recovering from lower back spasms, and he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster before the end of August.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Surrenders one run in rehab start
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) pitched 2.2 innings, allowing one run on one hit and a walk while striking out two batters in Sunday's rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Glasnow made the second start of his minor-league rehab assignment, and he was able to notch 26 strikes over 47 total pitches. The team had set a goal of roughly three innings and 45 pitches for the right-hander, so he fulfilled what was expected. Glasnow will need to make at least one more start at the minor-league level before he'd be in a position to be activated from the 60-day injured list.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Cleared for second rehab start
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) is expected to cover around three innings and 45 pitches in his next minor-league rehab start Sunday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow reported to Single-A Ontario on Tuesday for the first start of his rehab assignment and his first appearance at any level since May 6, after a bout with lower-back spasms resulted in a prolonged absence. The right-hander breezed through his outing Tuesday, retiring six of the seven batters he faced on 16 pitches. The Dodgers haven't revealed whether he'll stick around at Ontario for his next outing or move up to a higher-level affiliate, but either way, he'll be looking to tack on about 30 more pitches to his workload. Glasnow is likely to require one or two rehab starts beyond Sunday before returning from the 60-day injured list and reclaiming a spot in the Dodgers' six-man rotation.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Nearing rehab assignment
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Glasnow (back) will begin a rehab assignment after completing Wednesday's live batting practice session, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Glasnow has been shelved since May 8 due to lower back spasms, but assuming he checks out fine following Wednesday's live session, he'll move on to the final stage of the recovery process. Given the length of his absence, Glasnow will likely require at least three rehab starts to build up his pitch count before he's deemed ready to rejoin the Dodgers rotation. Prior to landing on the shelf, Glasnow turned in a 2.72 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 49:13 K:BB across 39.2 innings over seven starts.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set for another live BP session
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) will face live hitters again Wednesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow will take on live batters for the second time in a week after having done so already Friday. The right-hander has been on the shelf since May 8 due to lower back spasms, but he finally appears to be moving closer to a return. If all goes well Wednesday, Glasnow would be on track to begin a minor-league rehab assignment thereafter. Prior to landing on the injured list, the 32-year-old had compiled a 2.72 ERA and 0.83 WHIP with 49 punchouts over 39.2 innings in seven starts.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set to face hitters
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) is scheduled to face live hitters Friday, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Glasnow was cleared to resume throwing off a mound roughly two weeks ago, and Friday will mark his first time facing a live hitter since he landed on the injured list in May with lower-back spasms. The 32-year-old's progress within the past month has been encouraging, but he'll almost certainly require an extended rehab assignment once he's cleared to begin playing in games.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Resumes throwing
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has been cleared to begin a throwing program, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Manager Dave Roberts stated Monday that the club is approaching Glasnow's rehab with caution, so it's not clear at this time when he could resume throwing off a mound. The right-hander has been on the injured list since early May after experiencing lower-back spasms and remains without a clear timetable for a return.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Still shut down from throwing
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has yet to resume throwing, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
It was reported over the weekend that Glasnow could throw in the near future, but he's yet to make any progress. He's been on the injured list since suffering a back injury May 6 in his start against the Astros, and until he can gain clearance to resume throwing, a return date will be difficult to estimate.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Transferred to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Dodgers transferred Glasnow (back) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Glasnow has yet to make strong enough strides to return to a big-league mound, thus resulting in a 60-day IL stint. The 32-year-old resumed throwing May 25, but he was unable to get over the hump to advance his pitching progression beyond playing catch. The Dodgers will call up Nick Frasso to take Glasnow's spot on the 40-man roster and add another pitcher to the depleted Dodgers pitching staff.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Stalled in throwing progression
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts relayed Saturday that Glasnow (back) "hasn't gotten over the hump" to increase his throwing progression beyond playing catch, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow landed on the 15-day injured list in early May due to lower-back spasms. He progressed enough in his recovery to resume throwing Monday, but Roberts noted Saturday that Glasnow has been unable to "let it rip" to this point. The Dodgers will have a better sense of Glasnow's recovery timeline once he's cleared to throw off the mound.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Not yet throwing off mound
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has not yet resumed throwing off a mound after his back flared up, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Glasnow had been given the green light to play catch, but he's still experiencing back discomfort, which is why he hasn't returned to throwing off a mound. He'll presumably need to throw off flat ground without issue before advancing to mound work, at which point a timetable for his return could start to come into focus. Chen notes that Glasnow has been temporarily shut down from throwing for the time being.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Won't return when eligible
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that Glasnow (back) won't be ready to come off the injured list when first eligible, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
The good news for Dodgers fans (and Glasnow's fantasy managers) is that the hurler has been playing catch the last few days. However, Roberts indicated Thursday that the team plans to have Glasnow take his time in his recovery, and it's unclear when the right-hander will throw off a mound again. He's eligible to come off the injured list May 22, but Roberts' comments indicate that Glasnow won't be activated immediately. However, Roberts didn't share when the team expects the 32-year-old to be inserted back into the rotation.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Downplays early exit from start
Rotowire
Glasnow said that he doesn't believe the lower-back pain that forced him out of his start in Wednesday's 12-2 win over the Astros isn't anything too serious, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow said that his back "gave out" during a warm-up throw before the second inning, and he didn't feel much better on his next attempt to throw before the Dodgers removed him from the game. He worked one inning prior to his departure, striking out two batters while allowing one earned run on one hit. Glasnow spent time on the injured list in 2024 due to back spasms, and he'll get an MRI to determine whether he'll need a stint on the IL, per Ardaya. For now, Glasnow can be viewed as day-to-day ahead of his next start, which is tentatively set for Wednesday versus the Giants in Los Angeles.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Exits start with back injury
Rotowire
Glasnow was removed from Wednesday's start in Houston after just one inning with lower-back pain, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
After allowing one run in the first inning, Glasnow felt something in his back on a warm-up pitch before the second. He was visited by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts and the trainer and then walked off the field after a brief conversation. Glasnow is tentatively slated to face the Giants at home next week, but it's too soon to say whether he has a chance to make that start.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Dominant in eight shutout innings
Rotowire
Glasnow (3-0) earned the win Thursday against the Giants, allowing no runs on one hit and one walk in eight innings. He struck out nine.
The star right-hander almost completely shut down the San Francisco bats Thursday, allowing just a pair of baserunners on the afternoon. Glasnow matched a season high in punchouts and also registered an impressive 16 whiffs, firing a season-high 105 pitches in his longest outing of 2026 so far. Glasnow is off to a phenomenal start, sporting a 2.45 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 38:7 K:BB over 33 frames, and he's next set for a favorable home matchup versus Miami.
