Max Muncy has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a bone bruise in his left knee after a collision with Michael A. Taylor. An MRI showed no structural damage, but he is expected to be out for approximately six weeks. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts indicated that Muncy may experience lingering effects from the injury. Muncy was performing well before the injury, with a .312 batting average and significant contributions. The Dodgers plan to rely on other players for the third base position but do not intend to seek a trade for a replacement.
