Right-hander Dustin May agreed to a one-year, $2.135 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers ahead of Friday’s tender deadline.
May has made only 30 starts since the 2020 season due to injuries and missed the Dodgers’ entire World Series-winning 2024 campaign.
May, 27, is 12-9 with a 3.10 ERA in 46 games (34 starts) over five seasons with Los Angeles (2019-23). He has struck out 174 batters and walked 57 in 191 2/3 innings.
May underwent Tommy John surgeries in May 2021 and July 2023. He had surgery this July to repair a tear in his esophagus.
MLB teams have until 8 p.m. ET on Friday to tender contracts to arbitration-eligible players. Non-tendered players become free agents. May is eligible for free agency after the 2025 season.
