The St. Louis Cardinals made their first free agent splash of the Chaim Bloom era on Saturday, locking in former Los Angeles Dodgers phenom Dustin May to join their rotation for the 2026 season on a one-year deal.
Katie Woo of The Athletic was first to report the news. The Cardinals, who traded away Sonny Gray earlier this offseason as a part of their rebuild, have been very open about their desire to add a free agent starter to their mix this offseason to replace Gray, and they targeted an arm with upside in May.
