2026 Fantasy Outlook
May began the season in the Dodgers rotation, starting 18 games and serving as the primary pitcher once. He had a 4.85 ERA and 1.35 WHIP when the club announced he would shift to the bullpen. He was then traded to the Red Sox, where he made five starts and one relief appearance, posting a 5.40 ERA and 1.69 WHIP before his season ended in early September due to right elbow neuritis. His raw stuff remained appealing, though inconsistency was evident with a 9.6 percent walk rate and 1.43 HR/9. Despite the uneven results, the Cardinals signed May to a one-year deal with a mutual option, indicating confidence in his ability to rebound. He is expected to be healthy and will compete for a rotation spot. Improved consistency will be necessary for him to earn a stable role. Read Past Outlooks
