Max Muncy Could Return Next Week
Max Muncy (oblique) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City this week, according to manager Dave Roberts, and he could be an option to return for next week's short homestand from Monday through Wednesday against the division-rival Colorado Rockies. Muncy is rehabbing from a right-oblique strain and also had his rehab paused for a bit last week due to an illness. Barring a setback with his oblique later this week and into the weekend, Muncy could be back in L.A.'s starting lineup early next week. The first-place Dodgers could ease Muncy back, though, after he also missed extended time on the IL this year with a deep bone bruise in his knee. The 35-year-old veteran left-handed slugger is running out of time to make an impact in fantasy after hitting .258/.389/.491 with 17 homers and 64 RBI in his first 89 games.
