Availability
The Dodgers transferred RHP Gavin Stone to the 60-day injured list.
Fantasy Impact
Stone is expected to remain sidelined until the summer months. The move opens up a spot on the Dodgers 40-man roster.
Stone experienced a setback with his surgically repaired right shoulder early in spring and was shut down from throwing. Recent imaging showed only inflammation, and he's now considered pain-free with a return to playing catch expected soon.
Fantasy Impact
The Dodgers plan to take a deliberate approach with his recovery. A more precise activation timeline won't come into focus until Stone is ready for a minor-league rehab assignment, though Los Angeles is leaving the door open for him to return before the All-Star break.
Gavin Stone has been cleared to start a throwing program.
Fantasy Impact
Stone was shut down at the beginning of March. He will open the season on the injured list with shoulder inflammation. He is slated to begin ramping up his throwing program in the coming weeks.
Stone (shoulder) is recovering from surgery on his right shoulder and has experienced a setback. An MRI revealed inflammation in the shoulder but showed no structural damage.
Fantasy Impact
Manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that Stone will be shut down from throwing for at least a couple weeks. If he can resume his throwing program after that period, full clearance could come before the end of April.
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Gavin Stone’s surgically repaired shoulder began bothering him again following last week’s start and a subsequent bullpen session. He has been shut down from throwing for the time being.
Fantasy Impact
Stone missed the entire 2025 season while recovering from shoulder surgery and has now experienced a setback, which does not bode well for his chances of being ready for opening day. There is currently no timeline for when he will resume throwing, and fantasy managers should expect the Dodgers to proceed cautiously, especially after he did not pitch at all in 2025.
