The Los Angeles Dodgers are adjusting their infield for Friday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies as third baseman Max Muncy will not be in the lineup. Instead, Miguel Rojas is set to start at third base, likely due to the match-up against left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Additionally, with star player Mookie Betts starting at shortstop, Rojas is presented a valuable opportunity to gain at-bats. The Dodgers' infield is further altered with Freddie Freeman on the injured list, leading Kiké Hernández to step in at first base.
Max Muncy is not in Friday's lineup against the Philadelphia Phillies, with Miguel Rojas taking over as the starting third baseman to face left-hander Jesus Luzardo.
The absence of Muncy can likely be attributed to facing Luzardo, while Mookie Betts will serve at shortstop instead, allowing Rojas to get some at-bats.
With Freddie Freeman on the 10-day injured list, Kiké Hernández will step in to play first base during the Dodgers' road series in Philadelphia.
The infield setup is notably different this Friday for the Dodgers due to Muncy's absence, Freeman's injury, and Betts' positioning at shortstop.
