I guess the question is, what is the range of input you might see?
If you always see
English month, whitespace, month day, comma, whitespace, year
then you can get the values with something like
fn:analyze-string ('May 28, 2015',
'(\S+)\s+(\d+),\s+(\d+)')//*:group/fn:string()
and go from there (see also
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28673035/parsing-a-date-string).
Further upscale, there is some older code at
https://github.com/marklogic/commons/blob/master/dates/date-parser.xqy
that looks capable (I haven't experience with it).
