LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers did the expected on Monday afternoon, placing Tyler Glasnow on the injured list a day after he left his start against the Pittsburgh Pirates due to right shoulder discomfort.
It doesn’t appear to be just the shoulder. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts described the issue Monday as “overall body soreness,” and something that came up separate from the shoulder issue that knocked Glasnow from his start after just 17 pitches.

Glasnow did not go for an MRI on the shoulder. Glasnow has “had a lot of imaging,” Roberts said Sunday. The Dodgers don’t believe there’s anything structurally wrong with the shoulder, Roberts said again on Monday. What is wrong with the 31-year-old right-hander and former All-Star, in the second year of a five-year, $136.5 million contract extension, is a much bigger mystery.
“The doctors have to look at him and we’ll kind of see where we go from there,” Roberts said. The Dodgers called it “right shoulder inflammation” when announcing the roster move.
Blake Snell did wind up receiving a painkilling injection in his left shoulder, Dave Roberts said.
No timetable for either Snell or Blake Treinen, who are both shut down from throwing.

Glasnow left his past two starts due to separate physical maladies. He lasted one pitch into the fifth inning two weeks ago in Texas due to cramping in his calves, which required an IV before he made his start on Sunday. Then, after feeling something grab in his shoulder while completing his warmup tosses in the second inning on Sunday, Glasnow exited again.
The right-hander attributed the discomfort to changes he made in his delivery to try to keep his elbow healthy. He said the issue “comes and goes,” though the Dodgers’ decision not to send him for further testing seems to quiet the alarm bells that come with arm trouble.
Frustration levels are high.
“I’m just obsessed with trying to figure out what’s going on,” Glasnow said Sunday. “And it’s been like this for a few years, and I’m trying to find a way to stay healthy, and I’ll try to do whatever. I just don’t really have an answer right now, and I think that’s the most frustrating thing. It’s not like a lack of trying. It’s just kind of just getting exhausting at this point.”

Glasgow is now on the IL for the third time in two seasons in Los Angeles. He threw 134 innings in 22 starts last year, both career-highs.
“There’s the mechanics piece of it,” Roberts said. “There’s being uncomfortable, not feeling right. I think we’re all just — as Tyler said it — very frustrated and trying to get to the bottom of it.”
How long Glasnow will be out remains just as unclear. “This is going to be a tricky one as far as timeline,” Roberts said.
The Dodgers’ immediate pitching plans are in flux. They recalled right-handed reliever Noah Davis just two days after sending him to the minors. They have 13 pitchers on the IL, though one will come off on Wednesday when Tony Gonsolin returns from his 2023 Tommy John surgery. That will come on a day after a bullpen day.
The Dodgers are considering having Ben Casparius, a reliever who has already logged more innings (21 2/3) than Glasnow this season, stretch out to start and take Glasnow’s turn through the rotation.
They are set for a stretch of 10 games in 10 days, so they will even consider taking Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Roki Sasaki off their once-per-week schedule and pitching them on five days’ rest.
A six-man rotation isn’t currently part of their thinking.
“I don’t think we have six (starters),” Roberts quipped. Landon Knack, Justin Wrobleski and Bobby Miller have struggled in spot starts during the season’s first month. Clayton Kershaw won’t be eligible to return until mid-May.
The Dodgers are coming off a season in which they suffered enough serious pitching injuries that president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman called for an organizational audit. They won the World Series with three healthy starting pitchers. Now, they’re once again in a tough position. Glasnow is on the IL. So is Blake Snell, the two-time Cy Young winner whom the Dodgers gave $182 million this winter. So is Blake Treinen, their uber-valuable reliever. Snell and Treinen are currently shut down from throwing. Snell recently received a painkilling injection, Roberts said. It’s not clear what their timeline is.

That’s placed a burden on a bullpen that has already logged 121 1/3 innings, most in the majors.
“Pitching is certainly volatile,” Roberts said. “We experienced it last year – essentially every year. I think the thing that’s probably most disconcerting is the bullpen leading Major League Baseball in bullpen innings. That’s something where when we talk about the long season, the starters are built up to be able to take down those innings. That’s where my head is at as far as making sure we don’t red-line these guys.”
It’s a strange and concerning place to be in late April.

2025 AFC East offseason grades: Patriots revamp around Drake Maye, Bills focus on improving defense
Getty Images The main pillars of roster building have washed ashore in the NFL with free agency and the 2025 NFL Draft wrapped up. While there will likely still be some additions that each squad makes between now and the start of the regular season, the offseason now transitions more toward workouts and on-field preparations for the upcoming year. So, now that we've reached this inflection point of the offseason, it's as good a time as ever to go under the hood and take a hard look at teams across the league and evaluate how they revamped their respective rosters.In the AFC East, there's been quite a bit of movement. The defending division champs, the Buffalo Bills, spent the bulk of the offseason retaining their core group with extensions, including MVP quarterback Josh Allen.
