"Dave Roberts said Gavin Stone got a scan on his right shoulder, which showed inflammation but not structural damage. "We dodged a bullet," Roberts said. Stone will be no-throw for a couple weeks."
"Stone got the ball against the Cleveland Guardians Feb. 24, and only pitched the first frame in his return game. He retired the Guardians in order, logging just two strikeouts and getting out of the frame in just 15 pitches. His changeup looked especially sharp, as he threw the pitch seven times and recorded all three outs with it."
""That was awesome," Stone said to SportsNet LA's Kirsten Watson. "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.""
