May is expected to miss more than a month with an elbow injury, but the Dodgers are not inclined to look outside the organization for help right now. Stone is the leading candidate to replace him.
Dustin May is out of the Dodgers’ starting rotation for “at least a month and we’re probably looking beyond that,” Manager Dave Roberts said Thursday,The MRI that followed delivered a good news/bad news diagnosis. The good news was that May’s flexor tendon and ulnar collateral ligament are intact. But the flexor pronator mass in his pitching elbow suffered a strain.
“I do think that the second go, if it is potentially Gavin, will be better,” Roberts said. “But Dustin is a big void.” “I watched his first inning then I was on the plane so I couldn’t stream it,” Grove said of hearing about May’s injury. “Then I started getting texts, ‘What’s going on with D-May?’ I was, ‘What do you mean?’ I didn’t know until after .Indeed, it does – just as Tony Gonsolin’s spring ankle injury did at the start of the season.
Pepiot, meanwhile, has been limited to throwing on flat ground after experiencing renewed discomfort from the oblique injury that landed him on the IL to start the season. He is not likely to return until after the All-Star break, according to Roberts.
