CLEVELAND — As Tyler Glasnow worked through the mundane year-plus rehab from August 2021 Tommy John elbow surgery — where progress is incremental and timetables aren’t discussed — the idea of returning to pitch in this year’s playoffs was a motivating thought.
“I think that was always the ultimate goal,” Glasnow said Friday. “I think early on that wasn’t really in the cards. Then progression was good and I had a lot of really good people with me, like trainers and coaches and everything, and the timing felt good.
“So now I’m here ready to pitch in the postseason.”
