After going down with an injury, it is highly likely that Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Tyler Glasnow will not pitch again this season and post-season.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts announced that Glasnow suffered a serious elbow sprain and in unlikely to return this season which is a major blow to the team trying to push for a world series.
"It's a big blow," Roberts said of Glasnow's injury. "Looking at what he meant for our ballclub, what he's done for us, what we expected him to do -- certainly there's going to be a cost. But we gotta move on and we will. We have a lot of capable people. I feel bad for Tyler because he did everything to stay healthy and get back, and it just wasn't going to happen."
With out Glasnow and Shohei Ohtani, they will have to rely on Jack Flaherty and Yoshinobu Yamamoto to lead the charge in the postseason, but beyond that, their rotation is fairly uncertain which is extremely worrisome for the Dodgers.
"It's manageable," he said of the pitching injuries. "We're doing it. I think the main thing is that we have to just continue to stay focused on the players that are available to us and winning a baseball game that night. To the guys' credit, that's what they've done, and we've put ourselves in a good spot given all that we've gone through this year. We've still got a pretty good ballclub."
Will this affect their chances to make a run for the Pennant?
