Max Muncy has been activated from the injured list after a month, replacing Tommy Edman, who is going to the IL due to a right ankle injury. Muncy’s recovery from a knee injury sustained in early July was quicker than expected. Before the injury, he was performing strongly with a .304 batting average and 12 home runs in 47 games. Edman has struggled with his ankle since May and will now join the IL, paving the way for rookie Alex Freeland to play more at second base with Miguel Rojas filling in temporarily.
Max Muncy has returned from the injured list after a month-long absence, a surprise recovery from a knee injury sustained in early July against the Chicago White Sox.
Before the injury, Muncy had an impressive batting average of .304 with 12 home runs over his last 47 games, further solidifying his value to the Dodgers.
Tommy Edman, who has been dealing with an ankle injury since May, will go on the injured list after exacerbating the issue during a recent game.
Rookie Alex Freeland is expected to receive increased playing time in Edman's absence, as the Dodgers shift their lineup, with Miguel Rojas filling in at second base.
