To say that Dodgers right-hander Dustin May is having a good Spring is a bit of an understatement. The truth of the matter is that the extremely popular 25-year-old Justin, TX native and Dodgers third-round draft pick in 2016 out of Northwest High School in Justin is having a great Spring. In fact, he is making Dodgers manager Dave Roberts‘ decision on who his Opening Day starter will be increasingly difficult. Not a bad problem to have, wouldn’t you say?

In his fourth start of the Spring and despite the Dodgers eventual 6-3 loss to the Oakland Athletics on Sunday afternoon (May’s first loss of the Spring), the very hard-throwing right-hander allowed two runs and only three hits in his four innings of work. Unfortunately, one of those three hits was a first-inning two-run home run to A’s catcher Shea Langeliers.

“You know what, Dustin today actually was a little bit under the weather, didn’t feel great, so, you know, that first inning, gave up a 3-2 homer, didn’t have the command, I think, you know, he would have wanted today with anything,” Roberts told SportsNet LA’s Kirsten Watson postgame. “But I still think he grinded, got through four innings, and we got the pitch-count up, so just kinda keep moving forward was a good thing.”

So, who would your Opening Day starter be? Fire away.

Play Ball!
