Max Muncy Feeling Better, Starting at Third Base on Monday
Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy (illness) is back at third base and will hit sixth on Monday against the visiting Miami Marlins and right-hander Chris Paddack in the series opener at Dodger Stadium, according to MLB.com. Muncy missed Saturday's win over the Chicago Cubs due to an illness, and he was held out of the series finale on Sunday as a regular day of rest. The veteran left-handed-hitting slugger is feeling much better to start the new week, and he should be returned to starting fantasy lineups where he's rostered. The 35-year-old two-time All-Star has been swinging a hot bat in the first month of the 2026 season, slashing .300/.394/.633 with a 1.028 OPS, nine home runs, 11 RBI, and 22 runs scored in 26 games played. Muncy should especially be back in starting lineups against a right-handed pitcher prone to the long ball. In 15 career at-bats against Paddack, Muncy is hitting .267 with a 1.189 OPS and two solo home runs.
