Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Tyler Glasnow is dealing with "side discomfort" ahead of the World Series Game 7 matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays in the World Series, per Fox Sports' Tom Verducci.

“All four Dodgers starters are in play tonight," Verducci said. "Ohtani, Tyler Glasnow — although he had some sore side last night — Blake Snell and, yes, Yoshinobu Yamamoto after throwing 96 pitches last night, has volunteered to pitch out of the bullpen.”

“It’s down to simple math. Four starting pitchers. $1.3 billion in contracts. One game to win the World Series.”

Glasnow has made five appearances this postseason, including two relief appearances. The right-hander earned his first MLB save against the Blue Jays in Game 6, recording three outs on three pitches to get the Dodgers out of a jam in the bottom of the ninth. Through his five appearances, he has a 1.42 ERA.

Ohtani started Game 7, and Snell has had three days of rest since his start in Game 5, making him an option to make an appearance as well.

Even with his side discomfort, Glasnow appears to be an option to pitch as the Dodgers have all hands on deck for the final game of the season as they look to secure a second straight World Series title.

Yamamoto started Game 6 and warmed up on the field ahead of Game 7, indicating he could come in at some point in the final game of the season.

The Dodgers also have their entire bullpen to work with, as only three relievers came into the game on Friday, and only Roki Sasaki threw more than 20 pitches.

LA has won both of their two most recent Game 7 matchups, both of which came in the NLCS. They'll look to build off of a solid performance on Saturday to extend their Game 7 win streak to three.
