LOS ANGELES – The Dodgers’ Tyler Glasnow is making progress in his recovery from right elbow tendonitis but it remains uncertain if he will be able to start before the playoffs begin. Manager Dave Roberts is hopeful that Glasnow will be able to get in a regular-season start but acknowledges that there are many variables at play. In his first season with the Dodgers, Glasnow has been a valuable addition to the team’s rotation.
Meanwhile, first baseman Freddie Freeman is expected to return to the lineup after missing three games due to discomfort from a fractured middle finger. Catcher Austin Barnes has also been activated from the injured list after healing from a fractured toe. Despite some residual soreness, Barnes is ready to return to action.
Right-hander Brusdar Graterol has been making progress in his recovery but there is still no set target date for his return. The Dodgers will send Clayton Kershaw and Gavin Stone to the mound in the upcoming series against the Diamondbacks, with Justin Wrobleski lined up to start on Sunday.
Overall, the Dodgers are dealing with a mix of injuries and roster adjustments as they prepare for the final stretch of the regular season. With the playoffs looming, the team is focused on getting key players back on the field and ready for postseason play. Fans can follow the action as the Dodgers continue their push towards the playoffs in the coming weeks.
