3 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers skipper Dave Roberts said the team is considering placing infielder Max Muncy (elbow) on the injured list. Roberts said Muncy's elbow "just hasn't been right," and he aggravated it on a couple defensive plays recently. The 31-year-old suffered a partially torn UCL down the stretch last year and underwent offseason surgery. Muncy's elbow injury has likely bothered him all year at the plate, as he's hitting just .150/.327/.263 with a .591 OPS, three home runs, 14 RBI and 21 runs scored in 168 plate appearances over 41 games. Fantasy managers might already have Muncy benched, but they should prepare for a potential extended absence.
