Dodgers Consider Trading Dustin May Amid Rotation Recovery

The Los Angeles Dodgers are considering trading starting pitcher Dustin May as their rotation becomes healthier with the returns of Tyler Glasnow, Blake Snell, and Shohei Ohtani. May, who has a 4.73 ERA this season and will be a free agent after the year, could be used to acquire an outfielder, with Cedric Mullins of the Baltimore Orioles being a potential target. The Orioles, currently underperforming and likely sellers, might trade Mullins to the Dodgers, although they would likely demand more than just May due to both players being free agents after the season. Despite May's inconsistent performance, the Dodgers have kept him in the rotation recently, and he pitched 4.2 scoreless innings in a recent game. However, with a surplus of starting pitchers, May's future role remains uncertain, and the Dodgers are exploring trades to improve their bullpen and offensive lineup. Overall, trading May could help the Dodgers address their outfield needs while managing their pitching depth and injury challenges.
