Dodgers Injury Update: Gavin Stone Close To Playing Catch
Gavin Stone is set to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers this year after missing the entire 2025 season while recovering from a complex right shoulder surgery that repaired his labrum, rotator cuff and capsule.
The 27-year-old impressed in his 2026 Cactus League debut on Feb. 24, but experienced some discomfort after throwing an ensuing bullpen session that prompted an MRI on his right shoulder.
The results were encouraging as they only showed inflammation and no structural damage, but Stone nevertheless was shut down from throwing for the immediate future.
The right-hander will soon resume playing catch and hopes to throw off a mound in the next month, via David Vassegh of AM 570 L.A. Sports:
