May left Wednesday's start against the Twins with right elbow pain, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. He struck out two batters over one scoreless inning before exiting.
May threw just 16 pitches and sported a fastball that sat around 93-to-95 miles per hour -- a few ticks below his season average -- before he was replaced by Dylan Covey in the second frame. The Dodgers are labeling May as day-to-day for the time being, but he'll presumably be put through tests in the next day or two as the team looks to get a read on the extent of the injury. Given that May missed most of the 2021 and 2022 seasons while recovering from Tommy John surgery on the elbow, he's most likely be headed for the injured list. Assuming May does miss time, Gavin Stone could be called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City to replace May in the rotation.
