The Los Angeles Dodgers suffered another blow to their starting pitching rotation when they placed Gavin Stone on the injured list with shoulder inflammation. Stone had been the one consistent piece in the rotation, making every one of his starts this season before becoming the latest pitcher to go on IL.
Stone joins starters Tyler Glasnow and Clayton Kershaw, who were recently placed on IL as well. Glasnow was placed on the IL on Aug. 16 with elbow tendinitis. The Dodgers are planning to ramp up his next bullpen session and are hopeful he will return before the postseason.
