In a surprising twist before the game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the San Francisco Giants experienced a significant roster shakeup, trading for superstar Rafael Devers from the Boston Red Sox. This move sent young left-hander Kyle Harrison and right-hander Jordan Hicks along with two prospects to Boston. The Giants were forced to pivot quickly, with manager Bob Melvin calling on Sean Hjelle to start against a formidable Dodgers lineup that had been on a roll.

The Dodgers continued their hot streak, securing a 5-4 victory fueled by standout performances, including a three-run homer from Andy Pages and a solo shot from Tommy Edman. Dustin May had a mixed outing, struggling with command but eventually managing to navigate through a critical bases-loaded situation.

The Los Angeles Dodgers overcame recent struggles to secure a 9-5 win against the Cleveland Guardians, putting together a strong offensive showing that featured crucial contributions from slumping stars Max Muncy and Michael Conforto. Starting pitcher Dustin May delivered a solid five-inning outing despite a hiccup with a three-run homer allowed. Muncy and Conforto both homered late in the game, signaling potential turnarounds for both players who have faced significant scrutiny this season.

After a rocky stretch, Conforto finally found his rhythm, hitting a crucial homer that marked his first since early April, while Muncy added a three-run shot in the eighth inning to provide insurance. The Dodgers clinched the series win, showcasing resilience in their lineup amid injuries and inconsistency. This victory offers a promising glimpse at the Dodgers' ability to bounce back as they aim for a sweep in their upcoming games.

The Cleveland Guardians aim to regain momentum as they face the Los Angeles Dodgers, who sport the most expensive roster in MLB history. Tanner Bibee, with a 3.57 ERA this season, is taking the mound for the Guardians, while the Dodgers will counter with Dustin May, whose season has been marred by injuries but shows promise with his electric pitching.

In a recent roster adjustment, the Guardians activated Hunter Gaddis and pushed back Slade Cecconi due to a groin injury. This could lead to a bullpen game for Wednesday's matchup against the Dodgers, as the team prepares for a pivotal homestand that includes facing the Angels and Yankees shortly thereafter.

On May 27, the Los Angeles Dodgers (33-21) faced off against the Cleveland Guardians (29-24) in what turned out to be an exciting game. After snapping a two-game losing streak, the Dodgers claimed a 7-2 victory, highlighted by Shohei Ohtani's powerful home run, marking his 19th of the season. Contributions came from seven different Dodgers players, while pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto secured his sixth win after allowing just two runs over six innings.

The matchup featured Dodgers' Dustin May (2-4, 4.09 ERA) against Guardians' Tanner Bibee (4-4, 3.57 ERA). These two pitchers were fresh off impressive performances, with May limiting the Diamondbacks to one earned run over six innings and Bibee shutting out the Tigers in a seven-inning outing. The latest odds for the game had the Dodgers as slight favorites with a moneyline of -136, and the over/under set at 8.0 runs.

Week 9 of fantasy baseball is here, and it’s time to scour the waiver wire for valuable pitchers who are widely available in points leagues. Four standout options emerge: Shane Baz of the Tampa Bay Rays, Dustin May from the Los Angeles Dodgers, Tomoyuki Sugano of the Baltimore Orioles, and rookie Hayden Birdsong of the San Francisco Giants.

Shane Baz has electric stuff, evident from his early season dominance, though he struggled in May. His advanced stats signal potential for positive regression, especially with a favorable matchup against the Houston Astros. Dustin May has shown promise, particularly in a recent start against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and faces the struggling Cleveland Guardians next, making him a solid add. Tomoyuki Sugano is consistent and will start twice in Week 9, while Hayden Birdsong is set to shine in his new starting role after a solid outing against the Kansas City Royals. Each of these pitchers has the potential for significant fantasy impact, so consider adding them to bolster your roster.
