Tyler Glasnow isn’t going anywhere.

The Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher told MLB Network Radio on SiriusX that team president of baseball operations, Andrew Friedman, confirmed he wouldn’t be traded this winter amidst rumors that the team could target ace Tarik Skubal.

The Dodgers traded for Glasnow in Dec. 2023 and promptly signed him to a five-year, $136.5 million contract extension, a deal that will keep the 32-year-old under contract through at least the 2027 season (with a $30 million club option in 2028).

Health has been an issue for Glasnow during his Dodgers’ tenure, as he’s made just 40 regular-season starts in two years with the team. He’s been solid when available, however, going 13-9 with a 3.37 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 247 strikeouts in 224.1 innings.

While he wasn’t available for the team’s postseason run to a title in 2024, he was an important factor in 2025’s repeat, making six total appearances (three starts) with a 1.69 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 25 strikeouts in 21.1 innings. That included three appearances in the World Series and 2.1 innings of one-run ball in the decisive Game 7.

The Dodgers, meanwhile, aren’t exactly hurting for quality starting pitchers—they are so deep in that regard that players like Glasnow and Roki Sasaki were utilized out of the bullpen at times in the playoffs—but if there is a chance to get a superstar like Skubal, it would be easier to part with Glasnow.

As ESPN’s Alden González reported this week, “Glasnow’s name has come up in conversations, and the Dodgers would not be opposed to moving him. He’s poised to make a combined $60 million over the next two years, with either a $30 million club option or a $21.6 million player option in 2028. But the quality of his stuff continues to tantalize executives throughout the industry, and there are certainly a fair share of teams that will bank on him staying healthy enough to make it worthwhile. Maybe he’s part of the package that brings Skubal to L.A. It’s a long shot, perhaps, but wilder things have happened.”

For now, the Dodgers seem keen to extinguish those rumors. But few would blame them for carefully monitoring the Skubal situation.
