Brewers' Dustin May: Earns win in Brewers debut
Rotowire
May (6-7) earned the win Thursday against the Pirates, allowing two runs on three hits and three walks while striking out five over six innings during his Brewers debut.
Making his first appearance in a Brewers uniform, May turned in a quality start despite battling some command issues. He threw 97 pitches, issuing three walks and hitting another batter, but limited Pittsburgh to just three hits. In his last five starts, the right-hander has issued 14 walks and hit an additional three batters. May posted a 5-7 record with a 4.38 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 106:35 K:BB across 109 innings in 21 starts with St. Louis before the trade. He's scheduled to make his next start against the Padres.
May is expected to make his first start for the Brewers on Thursday against the Pirates in Milwaukee, Sophia Minnaert of Brewers.tv reports.
Milwaukee acquired May and left-hander JoJo Romero (appendectomy) from St. Louis on Monday in exchange for outfielders Alexander Frias and Josiah Ragsdale. During his time in St. Louis, May posted a 5-7 record, 4.38 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 106:35 K:BB over 109 innings across 21 starts.
The Brewers acquired May and JoJo Romero (abdomen) from the Cardinals on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
May has turned in a nice 2026 campaign, collecting a 4.38 ERA and 106:35 K:BB over 109 innings covering 21 starts for the Cardinals. The right-hander is earning $12.5 million this season and is an impending free agent.
May took a no-decision Wednesday against the Cubs, allowing no runs on one hit and two walks in five innings. He struck out three.
May, a rumored trade candidate ahead of Monday's deadline, is boosting his market value for the Cardinals at the right time. The 28-year-old right-hander has pitched at least five innings while giving up one or no runs in back-to-back starts, which comes after a rough patch that saw him surrender 18 runs over his prior five outings. If he remains with St. Louis past the deadline, May is set to take a 4.38 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 106:35 K:BB over 109 innings into a tough road matchup against the Yankees.
