"The last I read a couple days ago, he has no symptoms. He's pain-free. He is throwing. I don't know the distance or when he's going to be off the mound though."
"Roberts has been optimistic since Stone's minor setback, saying the Dodgers 'dodged a bullet' with his injury."
"Currently, the Dodgers' rotation consists of Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Roki Sasaki, Tyler Glasnow and Emmet Sheehan, not leaving much room for Stone once Snell makes his return."
"That's not to say Stone won't play for the MLB club this year, though, as he's proven a valuable arm at the top level and provides valuable depth for a team who is pushing for their first three-peat."
Gavin Stone is recovering from shoulder reconstruction surgery and is currently pain-free, according to manager Dave Roberts. Stone made one spring training start, striking out two batters without allowing a baserunner. Roberts described Stone's status as 'pre-spring training' and noted that the Dodgers have a solid rotation, with Blake Snell expected to return soon. Stone may start in Triple-A due to the current rotation, but he remains a valuable asset for the team aiming for a championship.
