LA lost 10-5 in the series opener, but will welcome the services of Tarik Skubal on Tuesday evening, as Skubal will make his first start in Dodger Blue.
One pitcher the Dodgers have been without for several months is starter Tyler Glasnow.
However, a recent Tyler Glasnow update indicates he could be returning to the fold soon.

The Dodgers have been without starter Tyler Glasnow for the past three months (since May).
On Tuesday, it was revealed that Tyler Glasnow is headed for a rehab assignment with Single-A Ontario (Tower Buzzers).
“Mr. 1000 Strikeouts is back and pitching for the Tower Buzzers. The Los Angeles Dodgers will have MLB RHP Tyler Glasnow on a rehabilitation assignment with the Ontario Tower Buzzers on Tuesday August 4, 2026.”
Before landing on the IL, Tyler Glasnow recorded his 1,000th strikeout in his MLB career!
“On the flip side, Tyler Glasnow is making a rehab appearance for the Towerbuzzers (Dodgers low-A). In a nod to the 3 MLB rehab assignments here today the scoreboard has made some adjustments to the team names.”
This is pretty big news for the Dodgers’ starting rotation as well, as they expect to return Tyler Glasnow and Blake Snell sometime this month.

Tyler Glasnow is another starter on the Dodgers staff who is electric when he’s on the mound, but has dealt with injury issues over the past few seasons.
He inked a five-year deal with Los Angeles before the 2024 season.
Across seven games started this year, he holds an ERA of 2.72 with 49 strikeouts in 39+ innings. His WHIP this season is sub-1.00.
Since joining LA (in 2024), Tyler Glasnow has posted an ERA of 3.27 across 47 starts with 323 strikeouts.
The hope for the Dodgers is that this Tyler Glasnow rehab stint has no setbacks, and he could return to the rotation in a couple of weeks.
