Los Angeles Dodgers place pitcher Tyler Glasnow on 60-day injured list
The Los Angeles Dodgers transferred right‑hander Tyler Glasnow to the 60‑day injured list retroactive to May 6 after he experienced lower‑back spasms during a start against the Houston Astros. Manager Dave Roberts said doctors have not cleared Glasnow to resume throwing, making him ineligible to return until at least July 6.
In a related roster move, the club added right‑hander Nick Frasso to its 40‑man roster, a procedural step tied to his upward‑mobility clause; he will remain with Triple‑A Oklahoma City for now. The Dodgers also traded left‑hander Antoine Kelly to the Chicago Cubs. Kelly, a former second‑round pick of the Milwaukee Brewers, posted a 5.14 ERA in 21 innings at Triple‑A this season.
The Dodgers, leading the NL West by eight games, have also placed left‑hander Blake Snell on the 60‑day IL for elbow issues, relying on a strong rotation that includes Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Justin Wrobleski as they head toward the playoffs.
