May will undergo surgery July 18 to repair the flexor tendon in his right elbow.
EDGE Analysis
May landed on the IL on May 18, and the news of his upcoming surgery effectively puts an end to his season. Details regarding May's recovery timeline could become clearer after his procedure, but he will most likely miss a month or two in 2024 as well. The 25-year-old righty finishes the season with a 2.63 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 48 innings across nine starts.

May (forearm) has not resumed throwing and is still rehabbing, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Manager Dave Roberts announced Wednesday that May had resumed throwing, but he walked back those comments one day later. It's been six weeks since May received a PRP injection, though he has yet to make significant progress toward a return to the mound.

May (forearm) played catch Wednesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
May has been on the injured list since May 18 with a right forearm strain, and Wednesday marks the first time he's thrown since then. There is still no plan in place for May to return, but it is certainly a positive sign to see him throwing once again. The 25-year-old righty held a 2.63 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 48 innings across nine starts before getting injured.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that May (forearm) is still weeks away from being cleared to pick up a baseball, per MLB.com.
EDGE Analysis
May suffered a right forearm strain during a start against the Twins on May 17 and was subsequently placed on the 60-day IL. That rules him out until at least mid-July, though it's uncertain if he'll be ready to go then. May received a PRP shot in hopes of avoiding surgery, but Roberts clarified that the team won't have a clear picture of his status for the remainder of the season until he's able to start throwing again.

The Dodgers transferred May (forearm) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
May landed on the 15-day injured list Thursday due to a right flexor pronator strain, and his move to the 60-day IL ensures he will be out through the All-Star break. Bobby Miller was selected from Triple-A Oklahoma City to fill May's spot on the active roster.

The Dodgers placed May on the 15-day injured list Thursday with a right flexor pronator strain.
EDGE Analysis
May suffered the forearm strain in the first inning of his start Wednesday against the Twins and is expected to miss at least a full month. He's going to try platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment in an effort to avoid surgery and expedite the healing process. Gavin Stone seems like the best bet to fill May's spot in the Dodgers' rotation, though Michael Grove (groin) could eventually be an option.

May (elbow) will receive a PRP injection in an effort to avoid surgery, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
If all goes according to plan, this puts May in line to return within 4-to-6 weeks. A move to the 15-day injured list is inevitable, and his absence opens up the door for Gavin Stone to potentially rejoin the Dodgers' rotation from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said after Wednesday's game that May has been diagnosed with a right flexor pronator strain, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
May showed a dip in velocity in the first inning of his start Wednesday afternoon against the Twins and was ultimately pulled after throwing just 16 pitches. He will be placed on the 15-day injured list, though Roberts declined to guess on an overall timetable other than acknowledging it would be more than a month. It's not yet known whether his UCL has been impacted -- early signs are good in that regard but further imaging scans are coming. May, one of the brightest young starters in the sport, required Tommy John surgery back in May 2021.

May left Wednesday's start against the Twins with right elbow pain, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. He allowed no runs with two strikeouts over one inning before exiting.
EDGE Analysis
May threw just 16 pitches and sported a fastball that sat around 93-to-95 miles per hour -- a few ticks below his season average -- before he was replaced by Dylan Covey in the second frame. The Dodgers are labeling May as day-to-day for the time being, as he'll presumably be put through tests in the next day or two as the team looks to get a read on the extent of the injury. Given that May missed most of the 2021 and 2022 seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery on the elbow, he's most likely be headed for the injured list. Assuming May does miss time, Gavin Stone could be called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City to replace May in the rotation.

May left Wednesday's start against the Twins after one inning, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
May threw 16 pitches before leaving, with Dylan Covey taking over in the second inning. May should be considered day-to-day until an update from the Dodgers is given as to why the right-hander exited.
