The Los Angeles Dodgers‘ pitching woes continue as Tyler Glasnow becomes their latest casualty, sidelined with a shoulder injury. While not considered severe, the ailment adds him to an already lengthy injured list, forcing the team to rely on the development of their younger arms.
Glasnow’s absence compounds the issue, joining Blake Snell on the shelf and creating a significant void in the Dodgers’ pitching staff. Despite the mounting injuries, the team remains hopeful for the eventual return of several key players.
One such case is Clayton Kershaw, currently on the injured list as he recovers from offseason surgery. Kershaw himself has indicated his desire to rejoin the active roster as soon as possible.
Dodgers’ Injured Pitchers
The Dodgers currently have a staggering 13 pitchers on the injured list. This number could arguably be considered 14, as Shohei Ohtani, while not injured, is still unable to pitch as he recovers from his own surgery.

Dodgers’ Pitching Holds Strong Despite Injuries
Despite the extensive Dodgers’ injured list, their pitching staff has maintained a respectable 3.82 ERA, placing them 13th in that category across MLB. While not a top-tier ranking, this performance has been sufficient to propel them to a solid 19-10 record at the time of writing.
