After an 8-2 loss in Game 3 Wednesday night, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts addressed his plan for the right-hander heading into a must-win moment.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking with the media after the loss, Roberts explained how the team will monitor Glasnow\u2019s workload while still leaning on his power stuff early. The MLB Network posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), sharing a clip of Roberts discussing the team\u2019s Game 4 pitching approach following Wednesday night\u2019s 8-2 loss to the Phillies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe&#8217;s full-go\u2026 as far as his build up, I think it&#8217;s just a normal start and we&#8217;ll read &amp; react and see how he&#8217;s throwing the baseball.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Roberts emphasized efficiency and aggression, aiming for Glasnow to work quickly and pound the strike zone through five or six innings. The Dodgers want to limit his exposure before the Phillies\u2019 lineup comes around for a third time, when hitters typically gain an edge.<\/p>\n<p>This marks the 32-year-old veteran\u2019s second appearance of the series after he threw 34 pitches in relief during Game 1, recording five outs without allowing a run. Glasnow missed time late in the season due to forearm tightness. Over 18 starts in 2025, he went 4-3 with a 3.19 ERA, 106 strikeouts, and a 1.10 WHIP.<\/p>\n<p>The Dodgers\u2019 pitching strategy headed into Game 4 reflects the urgency of the moment. After failing to contain Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper in Game 3, Los Angeles will need Glasnow to set the tone early.<\/p>\n<p>A win would send the Dodgers to their fourth NLCS in six seasons under Roberts. A loss, however, would force a decisive Game 5 in Philadelphia, where the Phillies went 55-26 during the regular season. The margin for error is slim, but Roberts and his staff believe their arms can seal the series.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts details Game 4 plan for Tyler Glasnow as LA looks to close out Phillies in NLDS Thursday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":105009,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[1369,39,44,66,1219],"class_list":["post-105008","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb","tag-dave-roberts","tag-los-angeles-dodgers","tag-mlb","tag-mlb-playoffs","tag-tyler-glasnow"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
