The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Friday that Glasnow will be on the injured list for a while.
Ah, those sneaky Dodgers. On Thursday, they announced that Glasnow’s start would be moved from Friday to Saturday. At the time, it sounded like they were just shuffling their rotation. Well, on Friday, they placed Glasnow on the 15-day injured list with right elbow tendonitis.
Justin Wrobleski has been recalled and will start Friday. Bobby Miller will likely start Saturday, although that has not been officially announced yet.
This is a major blow to the Dodgers’ pitchers, who have been plagued by injuries this season. In 134 innings, Glasnow has posted a 2.91 FIP with 11.28 K/9, 2.35 BB/9 and 1.01 HR/9. He averaged 96.4 mph on his fastball and had a swinging strike rate of 13.8%.
The Dodgers are just two games ahead of the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres in the NL West, but DraftKings Sportsbook still has them as favorites to win the division at -270. They also remain favorites to win the National League at +190 and the World Series at +370.
