| Lanky, long levers, very skinny, extremely projectable, surprisingly athletic; high leg kick, plus arm speed, low-three-quarters arm slot, slings it in at times; deceptive, poor extension, can have trouble getting over his front side at times; streamlines leg kick out of stretch, 1.4-1.5 to home. |

May is an interesting pitching prospect who possesses solid present stuff and impressive pitchability for his age. However, his incredibly projectable frame makes him a profile you can dream on. While he does have high-maintenance mechanics, he repeats them well and isn't prone to the wildness as one would expect from a 6-foot-6 19-year-old. The changeup still lags behind his other offerings, but his advanced approach and control indicates that he can stick in a rotation. If his body fills out and the fastball gains a few ticks, his ceiling could climb a lot higher.
Control 50/55
Command 45/50
