Dodgers Pitcher Dustin May Headed to IL With Elbow Injury, Out Six Weeks

Dodgers starter Dustin May left Wednesday's game against the Twins after one inning due to right elbow pain and will be placed on the 15-day injured list.
Tests showed May has a flexor pronator strain that will sideline him for around six weeks, though his Tommy John surgery UCL remained intact.
May will receive a platelet-rich plasma injection to promote healing and could return in early July if recovery goes well.
The Dodgers won 7-3 against the Twins, but May's injury leaves their rotation thin with three other starters already on the IL.
Reliever Justin Bruihl will replace May on the roster for now as the Dodgers look for more rotation help in May's extended absence.
