Dustin May News
Los Angeles Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts said that starting pitcher Dustin May (back) and reliever Blake Treinen (shoulder) will face live hitters on Wednesday. May isn't a lock for the National League Division Series roster, even if he shows he's healthy this coming week. Treinen is a possibility to be ready in time for the NLDS next week. May went on the injured list on Sept. 24 with lower-back tightness, but it's good news that he's making progress, so he could be an option for the rotation if the Dodgers advance to the Championship Series. The 34-year-old Treinen returned to mound work over the weekend and appears to be ahead of May in his rehab. He could be a big addition to the Dodgers bullpen for the start of the NLDS.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May (back) could work as a reliever in the postseason if he's able to make it back during the playoffs, according to manager Dave Roberts. The nature of May's injury is unclear, and the team has been coy about it, but if Roberts is indicating that he has a chance to pitch in the playoffs, that's somewhat encouraging. May was put on the injured list earlier this week after posting a 4.50 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 29:14 K:BB over 30 innings (six starts) this season.
Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Dustin May (back) has been placed on the 15-day injured list. The 25-year-old was clearly battling through some back tightness during his last start. The team will give him some time off and place May on the injured list. His regular season is over, but May could still play during the postseason. Right-hander Andre Jackson has been recalled in a corresponding move. The Dodgers are hopeful that May won't miss more than just those 15 days.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Dustin May has posted really strong ratios in his 90 innings with the Dodgers, which include a 2.98 ERA and a 1.09 WHIP. He is one of the hardest throwers in the game, consistently reaching triple digits with his sinker although he's not the strikeout machine you might be expecting. He rounds out his arsenal with a cutter and a curveball, but he is mainly a sinker-baller, throwing the pitch 51% of the time in 2020. This explains the low strikeout rate (career 20.8%), as the sinker is the most contact-prone pitch in the game. Since he has had so much success doing what he does best, he is unlikely to change anything, which will likely lead to more uninspiring strikeout rates. You should be willing to deal with the low strikeouts as long as he maintains strong ratios, which seems like a great bet given how awesome his sinker is. May will never be an SP1 in fantasy, but he is a really great bet to help your pitching staff and he comes pretty cheap as fantasy managers tune their preferences to sexier strikeout totals. With that said, he could end up in a hybrid starter/reliever role if he's outperformed for a standard starter's gig by the likes of Julio Urias and/or Tony Gonsolin.
