"That was awesome. Considering the whole rehab process, how long it took, the surgery I had. It was amazing to finally get back out there and do what I love doing. As long as I could replicate the stuff I had in '24 I knew I'd be okay. Getting back to that point, working on the velo... I'm just ready to go out there and get outs for the guys."
"Stone pitched one inning, getting two strikeouts and retiring all three batters quite easily. His full pitch arsenal looked sharp, especially the change-up that he is known for. He had an 11-5 record with a 3.53 ERA in 25 starts back in 2024 before his injury, which was a total of 180, up from his rookie year when he flat-out struggled."
Gavin Stone made his return to pitching after more than 500 days away, following a serious shoulder reconstruction procedure. In his spring training outing, he pitched one inning with two strikeouts and retired all three batters, displaying sharp command and his signature changeup. However, Stone subsequently experienced shoulder soreness after his start and a bullpen session, prompting the Dodgers to stop his throwing activities. This setback likely eliminates him from the opening-day rotation. Prior to his injury, Stone posted an 11-5 record with a 3.53 ERA in 25 starts during 2024, showing significant improvement from his rookie season.
