Dodgers Pitchers Glasnow, Sasaki Progress in Recovery

The Los Angeles Dodgers are managing ongoing rotation challenges as both Tyler Glasnow and Roki Sasaki recover from shoulder injuries. Glasnow, out since late April with right shoulder inflammation, recently made his first rehab start and is expected to return before the All-Star break after a few more outings. Sasaki, who was transferred to the 60-day injured list with a shoulder impingement, has resumed light throwing but still has no set timeline for return. Both IL moves are described as procedural rather than season-ending for the pitchers. To compensate for their absence, the Dodgers acquired left-handed reliever Zach Penrod from the Red Sox to provide bullpen depth. The team continues to closely monitor the health and progress of its pitching staff as the season progresses.
