It is a smooth sailing Monday afternoon in Santa Monica, CA. Nothing could wrong beside the potential earthquakes that surround and locate the area from time to time. Gavin Stone is a major league pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He has been attending this rodeo for less than two years and executing fine.
This comes off the heels of a Jack Flaherty trade, and injury stints to River Ryan Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Tyler Glasnow, and Clayton Kershaw. It cannot go without mentioning, Bobby Miller and Walker Buehler have thrown their arms out.
There is a stone unturned however in the stretch of August to October and his name is Gavin Stone. Stone has pitched a solid 3.63 ERA, 4.04 FIP and lately struck out 10 batters in a seven innings pitched win over Seattle.
Stone accredited Dodgers pitching coach Mark Prior for overcoming easy adjustments as well as learning from Clayton Kershaw. Stone has cleaned some things on his delivery, in the case of not spinning the ball off.
Bobby Miller was the Dodgers hopeful delivery man last year but considering him and Buehler have combined for 17 ineffective starts, Kershaw is back as always, Yamamoto will likely return, and Tyler Glasnow should be ready.
The race is on for October.
