Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Glasnow (back) will begin a rehab assignment after completing Wednesday's live batting practice session, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Glasnow has been shelved since May 8 due to lower back spasms, but assuming he checks out fine following Wednesday's live session, he'll move on to the final stage of the recovery process. Given the length of his absence, Glasnow will likely require at least three rehab starts to build up his pitch count before he's deemed ready to rejoin the Dodgers rotation. Prior to landing on the shelf, Glasnow turned in a 2.72 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 49:13 K:BB across 39.2 innings over seven starts.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set for another live BP session
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) will face live hitters again Wednesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow will take on live batters for the second time in a week after having done so already Friday. The right-hander has been on the shelf since May 8 due to lower back spasms, but he finally appears to be moving closer to a return. If all goes well Wednesday, Glasnow would be on track to begin a minor-league rehab assignment thereafter. Prior to landing on the injured list, the 32-year-old had compiled a 2.72 ERA and 0.83 WHIP with 49 punchouts over 39.2 innings in seven starts.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set to face hitters
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) is scheduled to face live hitters Friday, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Glasnow was cleared to resume throwing off a mound roughly two weeks ago, and Friday will mark his first time facing a live hitter since he landed on the injured list in May with lower-back spasms. The 32-year-old's progress within the past month has been encouraging, but he'll almost certainly require an extended rehab assignment once he's cleared to begin playing in games.
Glasnow (back) threw a bullpen session this past weekend, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow's recovery from lower-back spasms has dragged on much more than anticipated, but a return to throwing off the bump is a big step. He has not pitched in a game since early May, so Glasnow will require multiple rehab starts whenever he is cleared for a rehab assignment. The Dodgers' primary objective is to have Glasnow healthy for the postseason, so expect them to continue slow-playing the right-hander.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Resumes throwing
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has been cleared to begin a throwing program, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
Manager Dave Roberts stated Monday that the club is approaching Glasnow's rehab with caution, so it's not clear at this time when he could resume throwing off a mound. The right-hander has been on the injured list since early May after experiencing lower-back spasms and remains without a clear timetable for a return.
Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Still shut down from throwing
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has yet to resume throwing, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.
It was reported over the weekend that Glasnow could throw in the near future, but he's yet to make any progress. He's been on the injured list since suffering a back injury May 6 in his start against the Astros, and until he can gain clearance to resume throwing, a return date will be difficult to estimate.
Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Could resume throwing soon
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) is "beginning to feel better," and he may be able to resume playing catch soon, per MLB.com.
Glasnow last pitched May 6, when he exited a start against Houston after one inning due to lower-back pain. Though he initially deemed the injury minor, the veteran hurler was ultimately placed on the injured list. Glasnow has tried to ramp up his throwing since then, but a slow recovery has resulted in him being shut down on multiple occasions, and he was placed on the 60-day IL on June 6. Though it sounds like Glasnow is beginning to improve, he's not expected to return to the Dodgers' rotation until sometime after the All-Star break.

Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Transferred to 60-day IL
Rotowire
The Dodgers transferred Glasnow (back) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Glasnow has yet to make strong enough strides to return to a big-league mound, thus resulting in a 60-day IL stint. The 32-year-old resumed throwing May 25, but he was unable to get over the hump to advance his pitching progression beyond playing catch. The Dodgers will call up Nick Frasso to take Glasnow's spot on the 40-man roster and add another pitcher to the depleted Dodgers pitching staff.
Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Stalled in throwing progression
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts relayed Saturday that Glasnow (back) "hasn't gotten over the hump" to increase his throwing progression beyond playing catch, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow landed on the 15-day injured list in early May due to lower-back spasms. He progressed enough in his recovery to resume throwing Monday, but Roberts noted Saturday that Glasnow has been unable to "let it rip" to this point. The Dodgers will have a better sense of Glasnow's recovery timeline once he's cleared to throw off the mound.
Glasnow (back) played catch Monday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Glasnow had to be shut down for a bit after his back flared up on him when he was playing catch, but he's progressed enough to start tossing the ball around again. He will likely need to throw on flat ground at least a couple more times before progressing to mound work. A timetable for Glasnow's return to the Dodgers' rotation won't become clearer until he's throwing off the bump without issue.
Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Not yet throwing off mound
Rotowire
Glasnow (back) has not yet resumed throwing off a mound after his back flared up, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.
Glasnow had been given the green light to play catch, but he's still experiencing back discomfort, which is why he hasn't returned to throwing off a mound. He'll presumably need to throw off flat ground without issue before advancing to mound work, at which point a timetable for his return could start to come into focus. Chen notes that Glasnow has been temporarily shut down from throwing for the time being.
