My Take
Okay, the first thing anyone says about Dustin May is the hair, and honestly, fair enough, that flaming red mane flying out from under the cap basically turned him into a cartoon before he threw a pitch. But what I love is that the nickname Gingergaadi or whatever the kids call him aside, the guy actually backs up the look. That sinker has this absurd, almost video-game movement, like the ball forgot the rules of physics on its way to the plate. A Texas kid drafted out of high school by the Dodgers, World Series ring in 2020, then this maddening run of injuries that kept robbing us of seeing the full version of him. I just root for him, you know? Big arm, big personality, and that stubborn streak that makes you believe the best outing is always one start away.
