Tyler Glasnow, the starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, has no choice but to get ready for the upcoming season while the rest of the team gets ready to play the New York Yankees in the World Series beginning on Friday. Glasnow will not be able to play again until spring training, but he can help his teammates throughout the World Series.
Since August, Glasnow has been out after returning to the disabled list for the second time this season due to inflammation in his elbow. Glasnow’s elbow did not heal sufficiently, despite the Dodgers’ belief that he would be able to return for the postseason. In mid-September, they declared Glasnow out for the season because they believed he would not be able to recover in time. Glasnow stated that his elbow is substantially better, despite the fact that he has been confined to the sidelines. I haven’t thrown in a month since I had my body re-imaged, and it appears to be completely healed. “On Foul Territory, I’m just thrilled that I’ll be ready for next year.”
Additionally, Glasnow gave a more specific update on his offseason plans. Regarding his elbow, Glasnow remarked, “It looks really good and it’s healed quickly.” “I suppose I’ll keep my arm going, that’s the only thing I’ll change this offseason. I plan to begin doing plyos in November and throw twice a week for the duration of the offseason. In December, January, and February, when I ramp up to re-enter spring, I’ll begin to return to my regular routine. I don’t anticipate taking a few months or an extended break from throwing this year. I will simply continue and attempt to acclimatise my tissue to that workload.
The 31-year-old will instead work to stay healthier heading into his second season with the Dodgers. Glasnow had a great season for the Dodgers when healthy — beginning the year as the team’s Opening Day starter — but was unable to go come postseason. During the regular season, he did start a career-high 22 games with a 3.49 ERA and 168 strikeouts, but injuries once again got to him at the most important part of the season.
