The Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts could be delivering some unfortunate news to Shohei Ohtani in the coming hours. According to recent reports, one of the team’s new starting pitchers might miss the rest of the season due to an elbow injury.

The pitcher in question is Tyler Glasnow, who is said to have suffered a sprained elbow. According to Dave Roberts, it is highly unlikely that Glasnow will return to play in the final weeks of the regular season or any potential playoffs.

It’s worth noting that Glasnow is not a rookie; he joined the Dodgers in 2024, much like Shohei Ohtani, and he had previous experience with other teams. Before moving to California, Glasnow played for the Tampa Bay Rays from 2018.

Tyler Glasnow, along with Shohei Ohtani, is one of the six starting pitchers for the Dodgers in the 2024 MLB season. So far, he would be the second pitcher on that list to be sidelined, joining Gavin Stone, who has also been out of action for some time.
