INJURIES

Signs with Cardinals May signed a one-year contract with the Cardinals on Saturday that includes a mutual option for 2027, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact May set a new career high with 132.1 innings pitched between the Dodgers and Red Sox in 2025, though his 4.96 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in the regular season both marked significant regression from previous years. Despite his recent struggles, the 28-year-old righty should have little trouble claiming a spot in a Cardinals rotation that doesn't feature much depth following the departure of Sonny Gray.
59 MINS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Fully recovered from elbow injury May said Thursday that he's "fully back to normal" after his 2025 season ended due to right elbow neuritis, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Impact May made his last appearance Sept. 3, but he resumed throwing later that month and said he would have been available to pitch in the ALDS, had the Red Sox advanced. The right-hander's free-agent market will be an interesting one to follow. May had easily his heathiest season in 2025 in throwing 132.1 innings, but his velocity was down and the results (4.96 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 21.1 percent strikeout rate) were mostly underwhelming. That said, May is a young free agent at 28, and he has flashed frontline starter ability before, making him an interesting flier.
NOVEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Ready for second live BP May (elbow) will throw his second live bullpen session Friday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Impact May threw a live bullpen session Tuesday and will follow that up with a second session Friday. He won't return during the regular season, but he is hoping to be healthy enough to be available for the postseason.
SEPTEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE
Throws bullpen session May (elbow) threw a bullpen session Wednesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Impact May landed on the 15-day injured list last week with right elbow neuritis. While May appears to be trending in the right direction, Red Sox manager Alex Cora conceded that the righty has "maybe" run out of time to contribute down the stretch. Even if May is deemed healthy enough to return this month, his role is very much in flux, as he's posted a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings with Boston.
SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE
Officially placed on IL The Red Sox placed May on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right elbow neuritis.
Impact The Red Sox haven't officially ruled out May for the remainder of the regular season, though the timing of his injury would likely allow him to make just one more start before the end of the year if he returns after a minimum-length stay. Connelly Early was promoted from Triple-A Worcester to fill the void in Boston's rotation and will make his MLB debut Tuesday against the Athletics.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Heading to 15-day injured list The Red Sox will place May on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with an undisclosed injury, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
Impact May had been scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics, but the Red Sox will now hand the ball to Connelly Early instead. It's unclear what injury May is dealing with, but the club should provide more clarity soon. The right-hander has been up-and-down during his time in Boston, posting a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings.
SEPTEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Back in starting role Tuesday May is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics in Sacramento.
Impact Just as manager Alex Cora suggested would be the case, May is set to return to a starting role this week after the right-hander was deployed as a reliever while pitching on three days' in his most recent outing this past Wednesday against the Guardians. While working behind opener Brennan Bernardino, May limited Cleveland to one earned run on three hits and two walks. Since being acquired from the Dodgers on July 31, May now owns a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings through his first six outings with the Red Sox.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Back in starting role Tuesday May is slated to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics in Sacramento.
Impact Just as manager Alex Cora suggested would be the case, May is set to return to a starting role this week after the right-hander was deployed as a reliever in his most recent outing this past Wednesday against the Guardians, pitching on three days' rest. While working behind opener Brennan Bernardino, May limited Cleveland to one earned run on three hits and two walks. Since being acquired from the Dodgers on July 31, May owns a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings through his first six outings with the Red Sox.
SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE
Set for limited bulk-relief outing May will work in relief behind opening pitcher Brennan Bernardino for Wednesday's game against the Guardians, though manager Alex Cora said that the right-hander will be available...
Impact Since May will be pitching on three days' rest after most recently starting in last Saturday's 10-3 loss to the Pirates, he'll face a tighter restriction than if he were operating as bulk reliever on normal rest. Cora noted that the Red Sox aren't yet preparing for May to move to the bullpen on a permanent basis, as the 27-year-old is still likely to make a start during next week's series versus the Athletics. Since being acquired from the Dodgers at the trade deadline, May has produced a 5.68 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 25:11 K:BB in 25.1 innings through his first five outings with the Red Sox.

SEPTEMBER 3 • ROTOWIRE
Will not make start this week May will be available out of the bullpen this week, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Impact The Red Sox want to keep the rest of their starting pitchers on turn following Thursday's off day, so May will be available to pitch in relief, if needed. He will rejoin the rotation next week, likely during the series against the Athletics. May has been hit-or-miss during his five starts with Boston, posting a 5.68 ERA and 25:11 K:BB over 25.1 innings.
SEPTEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Fades late in Saturday's loss May (7-11) took the loss Saturday, coughing up seven runs (six earned) on eight hits and four walks over 5.1 innings as the Red Sox fell 10-3 to the Pirates. He struck out five.
Impact Boston held an early 2-1 lead as May gave up only an unearned run through four innings, but the wheels began to come off for the right-hander in the fifth after a leadoff single by Isiah Kiner-Falefa. May has been tagged for at least four runs in four of his last eight starts, stumbling to a 6.13 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB over 39.2 innings during that stretch. He'll look to bounce back in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next weekend in Arizona.
AUGUST 30 • ROTOWIRE
Poor showing in loss May (7-10) allowed five runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.1 innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Yankees.
Impact May is now 1-3 with 10 runs allowed over 20 innings across his four starts with the Red Sox. The long ball was his primary issue Sunday, as he allowed a two-run home run to Jazz Chisholm and a pair of solo shots to Trent Grisham. On the year, May is now at a 4.79 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 117:50 K:BB through 124 innings over 23 games (22 starts). May's next start is projected to be at home versus the Pirates.
AUGUST 25 • ROTOWIRE
Poor showing in loss May (7-10) allowed five runs on five hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.1 innings to take the loss Sunday versus the Yankees.
Impact May is now 1-3 with 10 runs allowed over 20 innings across his four starts with the Red Sox. The long ball was his primary issue Sunday, as he allowed a two-run home run to Jazz Chisholm and a pair of solo shots to Trent Grisham. On the year, May is now at a 4.79 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 117:50 K:BB through 124 innings over 23 games (22 starts). May's next start is projected to be at home versus the Pirates.
AUGUST 25 • ROTOWIRE
Takes ninth loss May (7-9) took the loss Monday, allowing two runs on eight hits and two walks over six innings against Baltimore. He struck out five.
Impact May worked around traffic to post six solid innings Monday, but Boston's offense didn't heat up until too late in the loss. Since joining the Red Sox, the right-hander has gone 1-2 with a 2.87 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 15.2 innings in three starts.
AUGUST 19 • ROTOWIRE
Blanks Astros May (7-8) picked up the win Tuesday against Houston, allowing five hits and one walk with eight strikeouts over six scoreless innings.
Impact May notched his first win with the Red Sox after yielding three runs in 3.2 innings during his Boston debut last week. Tuesday's outing marked May's third scoreless start of the campaign, and he fell one strikeout short of tying his season high. In 113.2 innings this season, May has a 4.67 ERA, a 1.35 WHIP and a 109:45 K:BB. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Orioles next time out.
AUGUST 13 • ROTOWIRE
Labors in Red Sox debut May (6-8) took the loss Wednesday against the Royals, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk in 3.2 innings. He struck out four.
Impact Kansas City made May work, as the hurler was unable to make it through four innings despite throwing 91 pitches. Wednesday represented the shortest outing of the season for May, who has worked at least five frames on just two occasions over his last six starts. The 27-year-old right-hander holds a lackluster 4.93 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 101:44 K:BB across a career-high 107.2 innings, and he'll likely remain a volatile fantasy option in Houston against the first-place Astros his next time out.
AUGUST 7 • ROTOWIRE
Team debut pushed to Wednesday May is scheduled to start Wednesday's game against the Royals at Fenway Park in what will be his Red Sox debut.
Impact Boston had previously listed May as its scheduled starter for Sunday's game against the Astros, but the right-hander will instead have to wait a few more days beyond that to make his team debut. Lucas Giolito is now slated to take the hill for the Red Sox's final contest of the weekend series with Houston.
AUGUST 2 • ROTOWIRE
Making team debut Sunday The Red Sox list May as their probable starting pitcher for Sunday's game against the Astros at Fenway Park.
Impact Acquired from the Dodgers on Thursday, May won't have to wait long to make his Boston debut. Prior to being traded, May was in line to move to the Los Angeles bullpen, but he should have a clearer path to a permanent rotation spot in Boston, as he'll likely take over as the club's new No. 5 starter after Cooper Criswell makes what's expected to be a spot start Friday. Over 19 appearances (18 starts) with the Dodgers this season, May posted a 4.85 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 97:43 K:BB in 104 innings.
AUGUST 1 • ROTOWIRE
Joining Boston The Red Sox acquired May from the Dodgers on Thursday in exchange for outfielders James Tibbs and Zach Ehrhard, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact After logging a 4.85 ERA and 1.35 WHIP through 104 innings in his first 19 appearances with Los Angeles this season after missing all of 2024 while recovering from flexor tendon and UCL revision surgery as well as a separate surgery to address an esophageal tear, May will be sent across the country to join the Red Sox. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that the team planned to move May into the bullpen, though the 27-year-old righty is likely to work as a starter with the Red Sox, who have seen the back end of their rotation get hit hard by injuries.
JULY 31 • ROTOWIRE
Joining Red Sox The Dodgers traded May to the Red Sox on Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact After logging a 4.85 ERA and 1.35 WHIP through 104 innings in his first 19 appearances back from flexor tendon and UCL revision surgery, May will be sent across the country to join the Red Sox. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that the team planned to move May into the bullpen, though it's unclear if the Red Sox have similar plans for the 27-year-old righty.
JULY 31 • ROTOWIRE
Shifting to relief Manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that May will work out of the bullpen going forward and will be available as a multi-inning reliever Friday against the Rays, Jack Harris of the...
Impact The right-hander worked behind Shohei Ohtani as a bulk reliever last week and will now be making the full shift to the bullpen. May has otherwise exclusively worked as a traditional starter this season, and his performance in his first year back from flexor tendon and UCL revision surgery has been underwhelming with a 4.85 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 97:43 K:BB across 104 innings.
JULY 30 • ROTOWIRE
Stumbles in the fifth May (6-7) took the loss Sunday against the Red Sox, allowing four runs on five hits over five innings. He struck out five.
Impact May looked sharp early Sunday, allowing just one run through his first four frames. However, he'd give up three runs on three consecutive one-out hits in the fifth, capped by an Alex Bregman two-run homer. It's been an up-and-down year overall for May, who's given up four or more runs in three of his last five outings. His ERA sits at 4.85 with a 1.35 WHIP and 97:43 K:BB across 104 innings this season.
JULY 27 • ROTOWIRE
Back in starting role Sunday May is slated to start Sunday's game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
Impact For the first time all season, May worked out of the bullpen in his most recent appearance against the Twins on Monday, when he tossed 4.2 scoreless frames in bulk relief behind Shohei Ohtani, who was limited to three innings. Ohtani isn't scheduled to pitch again until Wednesday, so the Dodgers will return May to his traditional starting role for the series finale in Boston. Over his 17 starts this season, May has gone 5-6 with a 4.96 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 88:40 K:BB across 94.1 innings.
JULY 27 • ROTOWIRE
Grabs win in bulk-relief outing May (6-6) allowed five hits and three walks while striking out four over 4.2 scoreless relief innings to earn the win Monday over the Twins.
Impact May worked in tandem with Shohei Ohtani, who allowed one run over the first three innings of the game. This could be a valuable reset for May, who had been torched to the tune of a 6.05 ERA and 1.50 WHIP across his previous seven starts, spanning 38.2 innings. For the season, May is at a 4.73 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 92:43 K:BB through 99 innings. This bulk-relief outing was expected to be a one-time situation for May, though it's not yet clear when he'll next pitch, especially with Blake Snell (shoulder) nearing a return that would give the Dodgers their healthiest rotation yet in 2025.
