Scouting Report: Tyler Uberstine

Summary

Tyler Glasnow, Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star right-handed pitcher, was placed on the 15-day injured list on May 8, 2026, with lower back spasms. He exited Wednesday's start against the Houston Astros after one inning while warming up for the second frame. Glasnow downplayed the issue postgame, noting it's a minor problem he has dealt with throughout his career. The Dodgers opted to shelve him for a couple weeks to allow the issue to subside. Prior to the injury, Glasnow was performing at a top-of-the-rotation level with a 2.72 ERA in seven starts, tied for sixth in the NL with 49 strikeouts. He is expected to miss at least two starts. This marks another durability concern for Glasnow, who has yet to reach 140 innings in an MLB season and has gone on the injured list at least once annually since 2018.
