Gavin Stone is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 8 (2024). Target Stone as a starting pitcher free agent waiver wire add for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12 Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 40% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: After struggling to begin the 2024 campaign, Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Gavin Stone has turned in three consecutive quality starts and is worth rostering in most standard formats. Stone's first four starts (18 innings) produced a 6.00 ERA and 1.78 WHIP, along with an ugly 10:16 BB:K ratio.
Stone's recent performances have been nothing short of impressive. In his last three outings, the 25-year-old has maintained a stellar 1.35 ERA and 0.80 WHIP over 20 innings. His 3:11 BB:K ratio also shows a significant improvement.

Stone has done well with limiting hard contact with a 31.4% hard-hit rate and 86.8 mph average exit velocity, which place him in the top 85th percentile and 82nd percentile, respectively. These are strong indicators that Stone could have a very successful summer.
Add Stone to your fantasy team if you are looking for wins and strong ratios. If you are looking for strikeouts, you may need to shop elsewhere.
