Will Gavin Stone Make The Dodgers' Opening Day Roster? It might take some injuries, but Stone could have some opportunity to see big league action.

FEBRUARY 19, 2024 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Optioned to Triple-A The Dodgers optioned Stone to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Stone gave up 10 runs over 13 innings across three appearances during his latest stint in the majors, and he will now return to the minors amid his struggles. Michael Grove (lat) will return from the injured list to replace Stone on the active roster.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Takes loss as primary pitcher Stone (1-1) allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.1 innings to take the loss Friday versus the Giants.

Impact Stone worked behind opener Caleb Ferguson, who pitched a scoreless inning. Stone ended up getting tagged for home runs by Mike Yastrzemski and Thairo Estrada, which accounted for all three runs on his line. This was the third time in his last four outings that Stone's given up multiple homers. He's at a 9.00 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and 22:13 K:BB through 31 innings over eight appearances (four starts). Stone and Ryan Yarbrough continue to work as a tandem, and they'll likely be available to pitch in the latter half of the Dodgers' four-game series in Colorado next week.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Gets last 10 outs for save Stone allowed a hit and two walks while striking out five over 3.1 scoreless innings to earn the save in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Mariners.

Impact Stone was initially expected to be a bulk reliever, but instead finished off the game after strong performances from opener Shelby Miller and Ryan Yarbrough, who went 4.2 innings. This was Stone's first scoreless outing in the majors, and just the second time he's allowed fewer than four runs. He's at a 9.45 ERA, 2.03 WHIP and 17:11 K:BB through 26.2 innings over seven appearances. He may continue to work in some sort of piggyback role with Yarbrough, though Clayton Kershaw's workload is also being managed to close out the regular season. In any case, Stone should next be available to pitch in the latter half of the upcoming week.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

To pitch Sunday Stone will pitch "bulk innings" Sunday against the Mariners, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Stone pitched as a traditional starter Monday and struggled across 5.1 innings against San Diego. Manager Dave Roberts' wording suggests that Stone will follow an opener, though it's unclear who will fill that role. Emmet Sheehan was originally projected to start Sunday but could throw a short outing instead with the Dodgers likely monitoring his innings carefully.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Poor outing in spot start Stone allowed seven runs on nine hits and a walk while striking out two over 5.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Padres.

Impact Stone pitched with a lead for much of his outing, but he let it slip away in the sixth inning. The right-hander was making his first major-league appearance since Aug. 27, but he's now allowed at least four runs in five of his six outings this season. It shakes out as a 10.80 ERA, 2.19 WHIP and 12:9 K:BB through 23.1 innings overall. It's unclear if he'll remain in the majors, though it seems like the Dodgers would fare better with Emmet Sheehan as their fifth starter after Stone's latest disappointing effort.

SEPTEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set to start Monday Stone will start Monday's game against the Padres, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact Clayton Kershaw was initially slated to start Monday, but his start was pushed back to Friday to line up his appearances for late in the season. As a result, Stone will rejoin the major-league club, while Ryan Yarbrough will be placed on the paternity list. Stone has had a lackluster start to his big-league career, posting a 10.50 ERA and 2.28 WHIP in 18 innings over five appearances (three starts).

SEPTEMBER 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Sent down to Triple-A Stone was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

Impact Stone pitched six innings of relief and picked up his first career win Sunday, but with that workload making him unavailable for a few days, the Dodgers decided to send him down to open up a spot for fellow pitcher Tyson Miller. Stone has not been particularly sharp this season, but he remains one of his team's top pitching prospects, and he will have a chance to rejoin the big club before the campaign comes to a close.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

First career win Stone (1-0) earned the win in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Red Sox. He allowed four runs on five hits and zero walks while striking out two over six innings.

Impact Recalled to make his first big-league appearance since July 4, Stone entered in the second and went six innings to earn his first career victory. Stone had allowed 17 earned runs over 12 innings over his previous four appearances but has pitched effectively in Triple-A since his most recent demotion, earning a 2.85 ERA with 49 strikeouts and 15 walks over 41 innings. It remains to be seen if this effort will earn Stone more opportunities moving forward for the Dodgers.

AUGUST 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Recalled for bulk relief Stone was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and will serve as the Dodgers' bulk pitcher Sunday at Boston, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 24-year-old right-hander is expected to follow opener Caleb Ferguson in Sunday's series finale at Fenway Park. Stone has allowed 18 runs -- 17 earned -- in 12 innings of work this season at the major-league level.

AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Slated for bulk relief Stone will serve as a bulk reliever for the Dodgers on Sunday in Boston, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Stone made three starts for the Dodgers back in May and they were all disastrous, so the team will see how he fares after following an opener. Caleb Ferguson has been pegged for opener duties. Stone posted a 2.85 ERA and 1.02 WHIP at Triple-A Oklahoma City after being demoted last month.

AUGUST 26, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Promotion imminent Stone will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday to pitch against the Red Sox, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact The Dodgers haven't determined whether Stone will start or follow an opener Sunday, but he will pitch in some fashion against Boston. The 24-year-old righty has allowed 17 runs across 12 innings in four major-league starts this season, but he's put up a 2.85 ERA and 1.02 WHIP since returning to Triple-A in July.

Shohei Ohtani trade proposals: Ben Verlander picks favorite among 12 teams

Sent back to minors Stone was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact He made a two-inning relief appearance for the Dodgers on Tuesday and is now being replaced with a fresh arm. Stone presumably will be re-inserted into Oklahoma City's rotation.

JULY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Works two innings Tuesday Stone was charged with a blown save against the Pirates on Tuesday, allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out three batters over two innings.

Impact Stone was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday and got his first major-league look as a reliever in the fifth inning Tuesday. The right-hander gave up a pair of singles in his first frame but was able to escape trouble; however, he wasn't able to keep Pittsburgh off the scoreboard in the sixth, as the Pirates tallied a run on a trio of singles. Stone has struggled to get runners out in his first taste of the big leagues this season, posting a 12.75 ERA, 3.00 WHIP and 8:8 K:BB over 12 innings.

JULY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Back with big-league club Stone was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Stone will get the call to the big-league squad to give Los Angeles a fresh arm after Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) was sent to the 15-day injured list. Stone has gotten roughed up through three starts so far this season (14.40 ERA and 3.00 WHIP with a 5:7 K:BB across 10 frames), though he's drawn tough opponents in Philadelphia, Atlanta and Tampa Bay. The right-hander is expected to be available in long relief Monday night in the event Michael Grove struggles.

MAY 30, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Optioned back to Triple-A Los Angeles optioned Stone to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact Stone got knocked around again Sunday against the Rays and has now surrendered 17 runs -- 16 earned -- through his first three major-league starts covering just 10 innings. Alex Vesia will join the Dodgers' bullpen Tuesday in a corresponding roster move, with Michael Grove (groin) lined up to fill the rotation vacancy next weekend versus the Yankees.

MAY 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to lose rotation spot Stone is expected to be replaced in the Dodgers' rotation by Michael Grove (groin), Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Stone has been blasted for 17 runs (16 earned) over 10 innings covering three starts with the Dodgers, most recently getting walloped for seven runs on 10 hits while recording just six outs Sunday versus the Rays. While Stone still appears to have the much brighter future than Grove, it's not a surprise to hear that the latter will be given the next turn in the Dodgers' rotation. Stone, for what it's worth, was still in the big-league clubhouse Monday, although he'll surely be sent back to Triple-A Oklahoma City to start rather than be sent to the Dodgers' bullpen.
