Muncy reveals torn UCL; healing 'a little slow' LOS ANGELES -- First baseman Max Muncy’s arm is healing slower than he’d hoped -- and as it turns out, the injury that kept him out of the p...

NOVEMBER 29, 2021 • MLB.COM

Healing slowly from elbow injury Muncy said Monday in an appearance on MLB Network that he isn't healing as quickly as anticipated after he sustained a torn UCL in addition to a dislocation of his left elbow in Oc...

Impact When Muncy first suffered the injury in the team's Oct. 3 regular-season finale against the Brewers, the Dodgers were initially secretive about the extent of his elbow issue. Muncy didn't resume baseball activities after injuring his elbow and was ultimately left off the roster for the wild-card round, NLDS and NLCS, but a firm diagnosis wasn't provided until the 31-year-old shed light on his situation Monday. While Muncy has seemingly avoided surgery on the elbow and has instead gone the rest-and-rehab route, the nature of his injury could make it difficult for him to gain full clearance for the start of spring training in late February. Muncy's uncertain health could make a risky investment for fantasy managers drafting early in 2022, as more information on where he stands in his recovery may not come until closer to spring training.

Left off NLCS roster Muncy (elbow) isn't listed on the Dodgers' roster for the NLCS against Atlanta.

Impact Manager Dave Roberts was holding out hope that Muncy would be available for the NLCS, but his exclusion from the roster doesn't come as a major surprise since the 31-year-old was considered unlikely to be ready to return. Cody Bellinger, Albert Pujols and Matt Beaty will handle most of the work at first base against Atlanta.

Unlikely to return for NLCS Muncy (elbow) is unlikely to be ready to return to action during the NLCS, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Impact This doesn't come as a significant surprise since Muncy had yet to take part in any baseball activities as of Tuesday. While manager Dave Roberts said he's holding out hope the 31-year-old could be ready soon, Cody Bellinger, Albert Pujols and Matt Beaty appear to be in line to handle the bulk of the duties at first base during the NLCS.

OCTOBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

No baseball activities yet Manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday that Muncy hasn't taken part in any baseball activities since suffering the elbow injury, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Roberts wouldn't officially rule out the first baseman for the NLCS should the Dodgers advance, but given that series would begin Saturday, it's safe to say Muncy won't be taking the field for that matchup. Cody Bellinger, Albert Pujols and Matt Beaty should continue filling in at first base for Los Angeles.
