Following reports of Tyler Glasnow's inclusion in potential Tarik Skubal trade talks, the Los Angeles Dodgers have informed the starter he will not be traded this offseason, quashing rumors. Glasnow voiced trust in the front office on MLB Network Radio amid MLB free agency buzz.
Rumors peaked during and after the Winter Meetings that the Dodgers might trade Glasnow—acquired before 2024—in a blockbuster for Detroit's Tarik Skubal. However, Glasnow disclosed on MLB Network Radio that the front office assured him he remains in Los Angeles. "They told him he won't be traded," he said, expressing full trust.
Glasnow logged a career-high 135 innings in 2024, followed by a strong 2025 (4-3, 3.19 ERA, 106 K in 90 1/3 IP) and postseason excellence (1.69 ERA in World Series run). His contract runs $32.5 million annually through 2027, with a $30 million club option for 2028. Durability issues linger, but the Dodgers prioritize rotation stability for 2026.
This clarity aligns with their aggressive offseason, including Edwin Diaz's signing, signaling Glasnow's role despite fluid trade landscapes.
