The Dodgers plan to bring Dustin back on Saturday

Dodgers plan to activate the right Dustin May From the injured list 60 days to start Saturday’s game against the Marlins, manager Dave Roberts told reporters (Including Fabian robes from Athletic). It will be his first MLB appearance in more than 15 months, as the 24-year-old has been out of action since undergoing Tommy John’s surgery in May 2021.

One of the best prospects in the game By the time he made it to the major leagues in 2019, May had excelled in his limited major league appearance thus far. He broke into the role of substitute in 2019, starting just four of the 14 games he played that year. He picked up 10 (out of 12 outings) during the shortened 2020 season, and was a full member of the rotation for the first month of last year before he sustained an elbow injury.

May, an elite entertainer in the globe, scored a sparkling 2.62 ERA with a slightly above-average strike rate of 24.9% during his first two major league campaigns. That was promising enough, but it looked as if he might emerge as an ace-caliber thrower during the first month of 2021. Averaged just under 99 mph on his Fastball, May made a stunning run as he faced 37.6% of the Hitters while running. He hits 56% of the hits he’s allowed in during his first five starts. He posted a 2.74 ERA on this stretch, but was forced out of a fifth outing with an injury that ultimately cost him over a year of business.

May is back on the professional stack after about 14 months, making his rehab debut with the Dodgers Complex League team. After two rounds there, he reported to Triple-A Oklahoma City for another three weeks to rebuild in MLB form. May has started five times with OKC, throwing 19 frames of a sprint quad in a 33:6 ratio from batting to walking. More important than the results, he’s returned to five rounds in each of his last two games, throwing 68 and 70 throws, respectively. The Dodgers aren’t likely to count on him making a number of three-pointers right out of the gate, but a 75-85-pitch outing against Miami might be in the cards. People may gradually build the pitch number from there and should have plenty of time to transition to the traditional starter workload before the post-season starts.

If he can recover his form in 2021 immediately, May will prove a huge boost to the club with world championship aspirations once again. They were hit hard by this revelation Walker Buhler needs to submit elbow surgery He will not return this season. However, the team had ERA bids of less than 3.00 out of all three starters to top the 100 rounds this year: Julio UrreasAnd the Tony Johnslin The location is off season Tyler Anderson. Pair this trio with May, a potential late-season return Clayton Kershaw Who continues to dominate when healthy enough to take the hill – and some distinct little specimens of it Andrew HeaneyAnd The Dodgers still has the capacity to run five or six very strong novice players in October. If everyone is healthy, one or two members of that group sneak up on the bulls list, which itself ranks fourth in the majors with a 3.16 ERA.
