For Washington Nationals reliever Koda Glover, this has been a forgettable season.
What started with such promise ends with shoulder inflammation that has not gone away. The 24-year-old last pitched on June 10 and will miss the rest of this year, no matter how far the Nats go.
Glover struggled early in the regular season with the hip injury carrying over from last year. After an impressive Grapefruit League, he landed on the disabled list with his labrum issue at the end of April. As the bullpen churned through failed closers, he won the job near the end of May.
