That is unlucky information, because it doesn’t seem {that a} Muncy return is imminent, which could possibly be a purpose why the crew simply traded for Cavan Biggio from the Toronto Blue Jays to fill within the hole within the meantime.
Muncy was off to a fantastic begin to the season earlier than hitting a quick week-long skid proper earlier than his damage, as he had a .940 .OPS on Could 7.
The Dodgers have struggled to fill in for him in his absence, as lots of the crew’s depth items outdoors of its stars have had poor campaigns to date, specifically Chris Taylor, Enrique Hernandez, and Gavin Lux.
Muncy’s absence has left a void within the lineup that nobody else has been in a position to fill, and there’s solely a lot Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani, Will Smith, Freddie Freeman, and Teoscar Hernandez can do on their very own.
