AutoDraft Pro AI

Dodgers pitcher Gavin Stone has experienced a setback with his surgically repaired right shoulder, leading to a pause in his throwing program. Stone missed the entire 2025 season after surgery for a capsule tear and labrum/rotator cuff tears. The shoulder issue resurfaced during recent Cactus League and bullpen sessions. There is no timetable for his return to throwing, impacting his availability for Opening Day and potentially leading to an extended absence. Stone was competing for a rotation spot.
