Glasnow, a first-time All-Star, went on the 15-day IL on July 9 with a stiff back. He threw about 57 pitches in a three-inning simulated game at Dodger Stadium on Friday, and Dodgers manager Dave Roberts seemed pleased with the workout. The 30-year-old right-hander is expected to be on a pitch count in his start against the Giants. He is 1-0 with a 2.66 ERA in four starts this season. Glasnow’s return is a boost to the Dodgers’ rotation, which has been without Walker Buehler (elbow) and Dustin May (Tommy John surgery) all season. Julio Urías, Tony Gonsolin, and Andrew Heaney have been the team’s most consistent starters, but Glasnow’s experience and ability to miss bats could give the Dodgers a much-needed boost.
