2025 Fantasy Outlook
May appeared to be nearing a rehab assignment in July after a year-long recovery from flexor tendon and UCL revision surgery. However, he was forced to undergo surgery again to repair an esophageal tear, an injury suffered while eating dinner, and that took a 2024 return off the table. Once a top prospect, May underwent Tommy John surgery in 2021 and has totaled 101 innings in the majors over the past four seasons. Indeed his velocity has proven to be a double-edged sword. After this latest absence, May is essentially an unknown since only the Dodgers have a real read on where he is entering 2025. The right-hander is out of minor-league options and perhaps a stint in the Los Angeles bullpen could be in the cards as a way to ease him back in at the highest level. Read Past Outlooks

Hit hard by Giants
May (5-6) allowed seven runs on five hits and four walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings to take the loss Friday versus the Giants.
Analysis
May gave up a pair of solo home runs as well as a two-run triple. He ran into trouble in the fifth inning, and Anthony Banda was unable to cut off the Giants' rally, which ultimately was too much for the Dodgers to overcome. The seven runs allowed matched a season high for May, who has had mixed results at best since the start of June. He's now at a 4.96 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 88:40 K:BB through 94.1 innings over 17 starts this season. The Dodgers' rotation is getting healthier with Shohei Ohtani building up and Tyler Glasnow returning from a shoulder injury Wednesday, but it's safe to assume May will continue to have a spot at least until Blake Snell (shoulder) is ready to return.

2019
2017
With his 2021 Tommy John surgery in the rearview mirror and a handful of starts near the end of 2022 in his back pocket to instill confidence, May looked primed for a breakout heading into last season. The fireballing right-hander began the campaign with a bang, tossing seven shutout innings in his first start, and through three games he posted a 1.47 ERA while holding opponents to a .115 batting average. May would pitch in only six more contests, however, as he left a start in mid-May with elbow pain and ultimately underwent both flexor tendon and UCL reconstruction revision surgery in his pitching arm. A typical timeline for recovery would allow May to get back the on mound around the 2024 All-Star break, though it wouldn't be surprising if Los Angeles is ultra-conservative with his return considering the hurler's recent injury history. General manager Brandon Gomes suggested as much in November, saying that the team won't push May's return and stopping short of committing to the 26-year-old pitching next season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Close to return
May will pitch one more rehab game and is likely to return in the Dodgers' series against Miami, which begins Aug. 19, reports Kirsten Watson of SportsNet LA.
Analysis
May underwent Tommy John surgery 15 months ago and is close to making his return to big-league action. He's made four starts for Triple-A Oklahoma City as part of his rehab assignment and has worked up to five innings and as many as 68 pitches. The Dodgers start a three-game series with Miami next weekend, and May is likely to start one of those games. The 24-year-old may still have a pitch limit when he returns but should be able to start seven or eight games before the season's end if he remains healthy.
