Trevor May Stats

New York Mets relief pitcher Trevor May threw a clean eighth inning in the Mets' 4-1 win over the Cardinals on Thursday. Over his one inning of work, May recorded two strikeouts, did not allow a base runner, and picked up his second hold of the season. After an inauspicious debut with the Mets back on April 5 in which he allowed two earned runs in 1/3 inning pitched, May has not allowed another earned run in 11 straight games. He boasts a 1.59 ERA, a 0.97 WHIP, and 16 strikeouts in 11 1/3 IP on the season. May should certainly be rostered in all leagues that reward holds. In leagues that do not reward holds, May can still provide value in the form of elite ratios and strikeouts. He may even have an opportunity to pick up some saves if Edwin Diaz struggles or is unavailable on certain days, particularly while Seth Lugo (elbow) remains on the injured list.

New York Mets relief pitcher Trevor May threw a clean eighth inning in the Mets' 8-7 win over the Phillies on Sunday. Over his one inning of work, May recorded one strikeout and did not allow a base runner. May has now had nine straight appearances in which he has not allowed an earned run. He boasts a 1.93 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP, and 14 strikeouts in 9 1/3 innings pitched on the season. With Edwin Diaz (back) possibly facing some missed time or a stint on the injured list due to a back injury, May becomes a must-add in all formats. As the most effective pitcher in the Mets' bullpen so far in 2021, May would presumably handle the bulk of the closing duties if Diaz is forced to miss time.

After a rough beginning to the 2021 season and his tenure with the Mets, New York Mets reliever Trevor May has managed to turn things around nicely. On Tuesday, May added to his rebound by throwing a clean eighth inning. Over his one inning of work in the Mets' 2-1 loss to Boston, he recorded two strikeouts and did not allow a base runner. May has now had six straight appearances in which he has not allowed an earned run. Over this timeframe, he has seen his ERA decline from 13.50 to 2.84, and his WHIP drop from 3.75 to 1.42. Additionally, May has posted elite metrics in 2021 which include a 0% barrel rate, a 1,74 xERA, a .219 xwOBA, and a 37% strikeout rate, all of which are in the top-10% for all of MLB. May will remain the primary set-up man to Edwin Diaz for the early part of the 2021 campaign, with Seth Lugo (elbow) still on the injured list. As a result, May should be on the radars of all managers in leagues that reward holds. He should continue to provide managers with outstanding ratios, and strikeouts.
