Dustin May Reacts to Dodgers Winning World Series After Trade to Red Sox

The Los Angeles Dodgers won another World Series this season, and will send out rings to all players — current and former — who contributed to their historic run in the 2025 season.

One such player is Dustin May, who the Dodgers dished to the Boston Red Sox at the trade deadline in exchange for outfielders James Tibbs III ans Zach Ehrhard. Despite his absence from the team, though, May expressed his happiness for the Dodgers for their win in 2025.

“I played with the guys for a long time,” May said before the MLB Awards show. “They were all my boys. It was definitely very fun to watch.”

May began his career with the Dodgers in 2019, and served as part of the Dodgers’ World Series-winning team in 2020. He missed the entire 2024 season with injury, though, and wasn’t part of the Dodgers’ second World Series win of the 2020s. He will be receiving his ring in 2025, having made 19 appearances last season before leaving at the deadline.

“Those are things that you can never take away from somebody,” he said. “I wasn’t in the playoffs with them, but I played with them for four and a half months or however long it was. So I definitely helped and contributed for them to get there.”

May’s 19 outings with the Dodgers in 2025 marked a new career high, having struggled with injury through the early parts of his career. He posted a 4.85 ERA through 104 innings pitched, striking out 97 batters in the process.

While not the most consistent pitcher in 2025, May still came through for the Dodgers with a couple of solid starts, most notably against the Atlanta Braves at the beginning of the season and against the Minnesota Twins shortly before the Dodgers traded him. He held his opponents scoreless in both games, earning a win against the Twins and no decision against the Braves.

He made six more appearances after swapping coasts, posting a 5.40 ERA through 28.1 innings pitched.
