Stone underwent right shoulder surgery Wednesday and is likely to miss the entire 2025 season, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.
Stone was initially sidelined with right shoulder inflammation in early September and was unable to return. He'll now likely be sidelined for all of 2025 after posting a promising 3.53 ERA and 1.21 WHIP with a 116:37 K:BB across 140.1 innings in 2024.

Rotowire
Stone (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.
Stone was already expected to miss the remainder of the 2024 regular season, and his move to the 60-day IL opens up a spot for Edgardo Henriquez on the 40-man roster. Stone is still working his way back from right shoulder inflammation, and he'll now be unavailable for the postseason.
Dodgers' Gavin Stone: Not expected back this season
Rotowire
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that it's "very unlikely" Stone (shoulder) will return from the 15-day injured list this season, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Stone had been scheduled to begin a throwing program this past weekend, but that didn't happen, as he's yet to pick up a ball due to continued soreness in his right shoulder. The right-hander has missed all of September with shoulder inflammation. Stone's continued absence is yet another blow to a Dodgers rotation that's been decimated by injuries.

Stone (shoulder) is expected to begin a throwing program this weekend, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
Stone landed on the 15-day injured list Sept. 6 due to right shoulder inflammation. The Dodgers' rotation is short-handed with Clayton Kershaw (toe) and Tyler Glasnow (elbow) also on the IL, but Stone at least has taken a step in the right direction with the playoffs just around the corner. Stone has an 11-5 record across 25 starts this season with a 3.53 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 140.1 innings.
Dodgers' Gavin Stone: Lands on IL with shoulder injury
Rotowire
The Dodgers placed Stone on the 15-day injured list Friday due to right shoulder inflammation.
The Dodgers' rotation has taken another blow with Stone set to miss at least the next two weeks. The 25-year-old right-hander last pitched Saturday against the Diamondbacks, allowing five runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four across five innings in a no-decision. Stone felt discomfort after that start, and it's unclear whether he will return this season, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. For the season, Stone is 11-5 over 25 starts with a 3.53 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 116:37 K:BB across 140.1 innings. Justin Wrobleski was recalled by the Dodgers from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move, and he will likely start Saturday against the Guardians in Stone's place.
Stone allowed five runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four over five innings in a no-decision versus the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
Stone gave up four runs in the first inning and one run in the third. He left the game with the Dodgers leading 6-5, but the Diamondbacks tied it once more to deny him his 12th win of the year. Stone had allowed just two runs over 19 innings across his last three starts before Saturday's less impressive effort. He's now at a 3.53 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 116:37 K:BB through 140.1 innings over 25 starts. Stone has allowed 18 homers this year, with 12 of them coming over his last 10 starts, which remains a point of concern for the right-hander. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Guardians.
