"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."
"Manager Dave Roberts had said that the team 'dodged a bullet' with regard to Stone's injury, and that it is more of a precautionary stop rather than a total reaction to another complication that will require an extended time off."
Gavin Stone, a Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher, underwent extensive shoulder reconstruction surgery that caused him to miss the entire 2025 season and part of 2024. He returned to spring training with a carefully managed throwing program and made one spring start. However, a shoulder setback during camp halted his throwing activities. Manager Dave Roberts characterized the injury as precautionary rather than a serious complication. Stone remains optimistic about his recovery, planning to resume playing catch the following week and targeting a return to mound work within the month. Despite missing Opening Day, Stone expressed enthusiasm about his rehabilitation progress and his desire to contribute to the team's championship aspirations.
