2023 Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
May missed three months with a stress reaction on the lower portion of his humerus. He was limited to 25 innings all season, recording a 5.04 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with 30 strikeouts. The 33-year-old was still able to secure a solid deal for 2023, signing a one-year, $7 million contract with Oakland. The veteran is the most experienced reliever in the A's bullpen and should be featured plenty in high-leverage, but May only has 12 career saves and might serve more in a setup capacity. The move to Oakland Coliseum may help the fly-ball pitcher, who carries a 1.2 HR/9 for his career. Expect May to post better ratios this season with a near-30 percent strikeout rate, plenty of holds and possibly even double-digit saves. Read Past Outlooks

Shaky start to spring season
May has registered a 9.64 ERA in five Cactus League appearances so far in spring training.
ANALYSIS
May has allowed five runs in 4.2 innings of work, but he has struck out nine while only issuing one walk. Signed to a one-year deal by Oakland in December 2022, the right-hander has a chance for saves in 2023 -- albeit for one of the projected worst teams in baseball. His role in the Athletics' bullpen has yet to be defined, so he probably won't be appealing in fantasy drafts.

After signing a two-year, $15 million deal with the Mets last winter, May served as New York's setup man and backup closer all season. He tallied four saves to go along with seven wins and 16 holds over a career-high 68 appearances. After ranking near the top of the K-BB% leaderboard in 2020, May's 22.2% clip was a bit of a regression, but still placed him 26th among qualified relievers in the category. His 15.8% SwStr% tied for 13th, while most of his Statcast metrics came in above average, particuarly his 2.87 xERA that ranked among top 8% of the league. May's skills and experience in high-leverage will be valuable for the Mets in 2022 as the team attempts to rebound from a disappointing season. He enters the final year of his deal with the setup role on tap, but his fantasy value would skyrocket if Edwin Diaz gets injured or proves ineffective next season.
