As detailed by Dodgers Nation’s Doug McKain , Stone underwent extensive shoulder work, more than initially reported, after injuring his shoulder.
“Stone began experiencing difficulty recovering between starts, which ultimately led to surgery performed by renowned Dodgers team physician Neal ElAttrache,” McKain reports. That surgery on Oct. 9, 2024, was to repair the capsule, partial labrum, and partial rotator cuff.
“During the procedure, ElAttrache discovered that bone was scraping against the shoulder capsule. In addition to addressing that issue, they performed a partial labrum repair and a partial rotator cuff repair,” McKain said.
