Dustin May Expects to Pitch Again in 2025
Dustin May (elbow) landed on the 15-day injured list with elbow neuritis on Tuesday (retroactive to Sept. 6). However, he avoided structural damage and expects to return this year. May told reporters there's a "very big possibility" he'll be back before the regular season ends. If that doesn't happen, the 28-year-old is optimistic that he'll be ready for a potential playoff run in October. Whether Boston would want to use May in the postseason is in question, as the former Los Angeles Dodger has fallen flat since joining the Red Sox in a July trade. May has gone 1-4 with a 5.40 ERA, a 1.69 WHIP, and 26:13 K:BB in 28 1/3 innings as a member of the Red Sox. Meanwhile, left-handed prospect Connelly Early - whom the team promoted to start in May's place on Tuesday - dazzled in his major league debut. Early punched out 11 hitters across five scoreless innings in a 6-0 victory over the Athletics.
