Tyler Glasnow is expected to undergo Tommy John surgery, per a report from Jeff Passan of ESPN.
There is still a small possibility that Glasnow can still rehab through the injury without undergoing the knife, but it’s being reported that Glasnow is slated to undergo Tommy John surgery sometime next week.
Glasnow had been among the best pitchers in all of baseball this season, compiling a 2.66 ERA / 2.76 FIP over 88 innings pitched and 14 starts. Opponents were hitting just .176 off of him this season, while striking out 36.2% of the time.
During his outing on June 14th against the Chicago White Sox, Glasnow departed after just four innings, despite being effective for the duration of the start.
