In May, the Dodgers’ starting pitchers continued to pitch well as a whole. The team ERA led MLB with a 2.94 ERA during the month. LA continued to fulfill the meaning of rotation as their staff sent seven pitchers out for at least three starts each.

Despite being investigated by Major League Baseball for their use of the 10-day disabled list, the Dodgers got successful starts for a majority of the month despite multiple pitchers being thrown off their usual routine.

While Alex Wood is the only regular starting pitcher to end the month of May on the disabled list, the Dodgers once again shuffled Hyun-Jin Ryu, Rich Hill, and Kenta Maeda on and off the DL. Here is a breakdown of each starting pitcher’s grade from last month.
