Player Outlook
Max Muncy continued to take the launch angle revolution to an extreme, but at least it paid off with tying his career best in homers and setting a new personal high with 105 RBI. Muncy's average exit velocity and hard-hit rate were around 80th percentile, but even with a 49.3 percent fly ball rate, Muncy collected only 17 doubles, resulting in a low .221 BABIP. As usual, Muncy walked at an elevated 14.7 percent clip, so he was still better suited for on-base and points leagues than standard 5x5 with batting average. The Dodgers extended Muncy's contract through 2025 with a club option for 2026, so they are clearly happy with his production and his skill set generally ages well. Buffer his batting average in standard leagues and like the Dodgers, you'll be happy with his three-category contributions. Just keep in mind for the first time in several drafts, Muncy does not have multiple-position eligibility; he's third base only to begin the campaign.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Slugs another home run

    Rotowire
    Muncy went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Padres. Muncy took Yu Darvish deep to right in the fourth to put the Dodgers ahead 3-1 and the offense would be shut out the rest of the way. That's now three home runs in his last four games and he's also managed to not strike out in consecutive games for the first time this year. Muncy has punched out multiple times in 11-of-16 games to begin the year and holds a strikeout rate of 37 percent, as he looks to level out that number as the season progresses.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Goes deep in loss Friday

    Rotowire
    Muncy went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and two walks in Friday's extra-innings loss to San Diego. Muncy mashed one of four Dodgers homers in the contest, belting a solo shot to right field in the second inning. It was his third long ball of the campaign and second in as many games. Muncy's batting average (.255) has been better so far this season than in recent campaigns, but that may not hold if he continues to strike out at a poor 41.5 percent rate.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Cranks second homer

    Rotowire
    Muncy went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Twins. Muncy led off the fourth inning with a 400-foot solo shot off Chris Paddack, tying the game 2-2. It's the second homer of the year for Muncy, who's now batting .250 with a .756 OPS and eight RBI through 14 games this season. The 33-year-old third baseman figures to see plenty of RBI chances while batting behind Freddie Freeman and Shohei Ohtani in the Dodgers' high-powered lineup.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Not in Sunday's lineup

    Rotowire
    Muncy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports. Muncy has made three starts against left-handed pitchers this season but will take a seat Sunday versus Chicago southpaw Shota Imanaga. Miguel Rojas will man the hot corner and bat ninth.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Drives in two in win

    Rotowire
    Muncy went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Cubs. Muncy doubled to lead off the top of the fourth but was left stranded. However, he got the Dodgers on the board in the next inning with a two-run single, scoring Shohei Ohtani and Teoscar Hernandez. The third baseman was just 2-for-15 at the plate this month coming in, though Saturday did mark his third two-hit game of the season. Muncy has also struck out multiple times in five consecutive games and in all but two games so far during the campaign.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Steps out of lineup

    Rotowire
    Muncy is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Muncy is 6-for-21 with at least one hit in each of the first five games of the season, but he has just one extra-base hit and has struck out 10 times. He'll receive his first day off Sunday with lefty Steven Matz pitching for St. Louis.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Plays nine innings in exhibition

    Rotowire
    Muncy (illness) went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI on Monday in the Dodgers' 5-2 exhibition win over the South Korean national team in Seoul, South Korea. In the Dodgers' final tuneup before their regular-season opener Wednesday versus the Padres in Seoul, Muncy played nine innings at third base while slotting in as the No. 5 hitter in what appeared to be manager Dave Roberts' preferred lineup configuration versus right-handed pitching. Muncy had missed some workouts last week in Arizona while battling an illness, but his ability to join the Dodgers for the trip to South Korea and play nine innings Monday sets the stage for him to be included in the lineup for both contests of the season-opening series against the Padres this week.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Traveling for season-opening series

    Rotowire
    Muncy (illness) said Wednesday he will travel with the Dodgers to South Korea for the season-opening series against the Padres next week, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports. The 33-year-old apparently lost 10 pounds while battling a virus for most of the past week, but it appears he'll be back in time for the start of the regular season. Muncy has a week to get his strength back before Opening Day next Wednesday, when he should be locked in at third base for Los Angeles.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Battling illness

    Rotowire
    Muncy is away from the Dodgers' camp Tuesday due to illness, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports. He hasn't been in the team's lineup for a few days, and the illness likely explains why that's the case. The Dodgers have just one more Cactus League game before heading to South Korea to take on the Padres in the first two regular-season contests March 20 and 21, but it's not clear whether Muncy will be ready to play in Wednesday's Cactus League contest versus the Mariners.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Returns to lineup

    Rotowire
    Muncy (hand) is starting at third base and batting fourth for the Dodgers' spring training game against the Cubs on Saturday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports. Muncy had been held out for the past couple of games after getting hit in the hand by a pitch during Wednesday's contest against Texas. He resumed swinging a bat Friday and was never expected to miss much time. Muncy tied a career high with 36 homers last season and has already hit one out in six at-bats this spring.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Takes batting practice

    Rotowire
    Muncy (hand) took batting practice Friday and is scheduled to return to Cactus League action Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. Friday marks the first time Muncy has swung a bat since he was struck in the left hand by a pitch during Wednesday's exhibition game against the Rangers. The Dodgers never seemed too concerned about Muncy's availability for the regular season, and it appears he will return to the playing field after just three days of rest. The 33-year-old has logged three hits in six at-bats so far this spring, including a home run.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: X-rays negative

    Rotowire
    X-rays on Muncy's left hand came back negative Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. Muncy was hit in the hand by a pitch during Wednesday's Cactus League game against Texas, but he appears to have escaped with only a bruise. Muncy said the swelling on his hand has already gone down, but he has yet to swing a bat again. It may be a few days before the 33-year-old plays in another spring game, but he shouldn't be at risk of missing Opening Day.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Dealing with bruised hand

    Rotowire
    Muncy was diagnosed with a bruise on his left hand Wednesday, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports. The 33-year-old was struck on the left hand by a pitch during Wednesday's Cactus League game versus the Rangers, but it appears he's avoided a serious injury. Muncy is scheduled to undergo an X-ray on Thursday, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic, which should provide additional clarity.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Undergoing X-rays on hand

    Rotowire
    Muncy will undergo X-rays on his left hand after being hit by a pitch in Wednesday's Cactus League game versus the Rangers, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports. Muncy was struck by a Cody Bradford offering in the first inning. He initially stayed in the game and played a few frames on defense before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the fourth. The Dodgers should have an update on the third baseman's status later Wednesday or Thursday.

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Inks two-year extension

    Rotowire
    Muncy signed a two-year, $24 million contract extension with the Dodgers on Thursday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Muncy already had a $14 million club option for the 2024 season, but the Dodgers will instead give him a new deal that keeps the 33-year-old slugger in Los Angeles through 2025 with a $10 million club option for 2026. Muncy slashed .212/.333/.475 across 482 plate appearances in 2023 while recording personal bests in home runs (36) and RBI (105).

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Gets breather Friday

    Rotowire

  • Dodgers' Max Muncy: Smacks 36th homer

    Rotowire
    Muncy went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers. Muncy's blast got the Dodgers on the board in the sixth inning against Tigers starter Reese Olson. It also extended Muncy's hitting streak to 11 games, though he's gone 13-for-43 (.302) with just two multi-hit efforts in that span. The infielder matched his career high with his 36th homer of the season, and he's got a decent chance to set a new personal best with 11 contests left on the schedule. He's added a .213/.335/.496 slash line with 102 RBI, 89 runs scored, a stolen base, 16 doubles and a triple through 126 games this season.
