Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jake Bauers explains why Dustin May can strengthen the rotation following Monday's MLB trade deadline. The Milwaukee Brewers reinforced their pitching staff Monday by acquiring right-hander Dustin May and left-handed reliever JoJo Romero from the St. Louis Cardinals. Milwaukee sent outfield prospects Alexander Frias and Josiah Ragsdale to St. Louis in the trade. The 28-year-old made 21 starts for St. Louis, posting a 5-7 record, 4.38 ERA, and 106 strikeouts across 109 innings. Brewers first baseman and outfielder Jake Bauers offered a hitter’s perspective on May after the deal.
