Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow gets Dave Roberts ‘World Series' stamp of approval despite loss

The post Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow gets Dave Roberts 'World Series' stamp of approval despite loss appeared first on ClutchPoints. 2025 hasn't exactly been the easiest season for Tyler Glasnow. He missed over two months of baseball after suffering a shoulder injury, and since returning to the mound in July for the Los Angeles Dodgers, he hasn't exactly been at his best either. But on Monday, Glasnow managed to turn things around after a rough few first innings, performing well despite the Dodgers' 3-2 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Glasnow was missing the mark in the first two innings. But something clicked for him when he played off of his breaking ball. In the end, he threw seven innings, allowed just one run on three hits and two walks while striking out seven — a performance certainly good enough to get the Dodgers the win. The bullpen, however, had other ideas, with Brock Stewart being tagged for an earned run in the ninth, leading to the Dodgers' loss. It seems as though Glasnow is rounding into form, and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts couldn't be any more proud of him. In fact, Roberts showered Glasnow with praise, saying that he'll be playing a major part in the team's World Series hopes after missing the entirety of the 2024 playoffs with injury. 'Our goal hasn't changed. It's to win a World Series. We're going to do that this year with starting pitching. And he's going to be a big part of it,' Roberts said in his postgame presser, via Cary Osborne, Dodgers insider. Roberts, of course, is not expecting Glasnow to be perfect from here on out. He knows that facing adversity is inevitable, but he believes that the Dodgers will help Glasnow figure it out. 'It's not going to be linear. It's not going to be easy. There's going to be things that you can't control, and he's finding a way to weather those things and continue to move forward. So for me, that's kind of the silver lining for tonight. And really, really impressive, Tyler (was),' Roberts added. Dodgers may need divine intervention to jumpstart offense The Dodgers' offense hasn't been at its best for a while now. Since the first of July, they've ranked just 23rd in runs scored. For a team as purportedly stacked as the Dodgers', this will not do. In fact, Mookie Betts, who is in the middle of his worst MLB season to date, is looking for some sort of divine intervention to help him end his slump. And perhaps he should expand his prayer to cover for the rest of the Dodgers team's woes on that side of the ball.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts' confident take as hitting woes pile up

The post Dodgers manager Dave Roberts' confident take as hitting woes pile up appeared first on ClutchPoints. For much of the 2025 season, the Los Angeles Dodgers have been as dominant as ever, boasting depth up and down the roster on both sides of the ball. But a team can only be as good as their worst side of the ball, and at the moment, the Dodgers cannot hit a lick. On Monday night, the Dodgers were on the receiving end of a 3-2 loss from the St. Louis Cardinals — with Sonny Gray shutting the team down. It's not like the Dodgers are experiencing severe injury woes. They had the likes of Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman, Will Smith, and Mookie Betts active — with Max Muncy even returning from the injured list. But all they could muster against the Cardinals were three hits, failing to give Tyler Glasnow the run support he needed to grab a win. Baseball is about timing and sequencing. The Dodgers could at least take a bit of comfort in the fact that their offense is sputtering in August, not in October. After all, manager Dave Roberts believes that it's only a matter of time before his team turns it around at the plate — they're simply 'too talented' not to. 'The offense will get on track, it's gonna happen at some point, we're just too talented for it not to,' Roberts said in his postgame presser, per SportsNet LA. Considering the track record of the players they have on the roster, this belief from Roberts is not misplaced. But past performance isn't necessarily an indicator of future production. Someone like Betts, for example, is 32 years of age already. Aging curves are different for each player, and there's a chance that his level of play in 2025 is his new normal. But indeed, only time will tell if this offensive rut from the Dodgers is something they have to worry about or something they simply have to overcome. Dodgers' offensive woes may be overblown Since the start of July, the Dodgers have not been very good offensively. They rank just 23rd in MLB in total runs scored, which is a far cry from where they usually rank. But on the year, the Dodgers have scored 578 runs — good for third-best in MLB. A good offensive team does not become a horrific one overnight. As is the case with every ballplayer, there are ebbs and flows — the Dodgers are simply getting the short end of the stick with their players simultaneously going cold.

Eovaldi allows 1 hit, Tellez single helps Rangers spoil Judge's return in 2-0 win over Yankees

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Nathan Eovaldi pitched eight sharp innings, Rowdy Tellez blooped a two-run single on a 10-pitch at-bat in the eighth, and the Texas Rangers spoiled Aaron Judge's return with a 2-0 victory over the New York Yankees on Tuesday night. Judge was 0 for 3 with two strikeouts as the designated hitter after being activated from the 10-day injured list. The All-Star slugger has a tendon strain in his right elbow, and the Yankees plan to start a throwing program Wednesday to see how soon Judge can return to the outfield. The Yankees have lost five in a row, one shy of their season worst, and 19 of their past 24 road games. Anthony Volpe was the only baserunner against Eovaldi, reaching on a hustling double in the third when his soft liner landed behind shortstop Corey Seager in shallow left field. Eovaldi (10-3) has allowed just two runs total in his past six starts. It was his seventh start since returning from right elbow inflammation. Tellez fouled off four two-strike pitches from Devin Williams with the bases loaded and one out before dumping a ball in front of center fielder Trent Grisham. Key moment Giancarlo Stanton is temporarily displaced as the DH with Judge unable to play the outfield. He came on as a pinch hitter as the potential tying run in the ninth, but he grounded into a double play started by a diving stop from Seager. Key stat Williams has allowed a run in four consecutive appearances for the first time in his seven-year career. The right-hander has allowed 26 earned runs this season, matching his combined total from 2022-24. Up next Yankees LHP Carlos Rodón (11-7, 3.34 ERA) is set to face RHP Jack Leiter (7-6, 4.10 ERA) on Wednesday in the series finale. ___ AP MLB:
