Los Los Angeles Dodgers They announced the integration of several of their key pieces after months of absence, which should give them the boost they need to continue fighting to win their division in the face of the postseason of the MLB 2024.
Max Muncy..
After being absent from the lineup since May 15, Muncy has been recovering from a left oblique injury that has kept him from returning for about three months. However, he has already logged five games of rehabilitation at Triple-A with an eye toward a return to the big team, where he has posted a .578 OPS with 4 hits, 1 double, 2 walks and 6 strikeouts in 18 at-bats.
Muncy is expected to debut next Tuesday when the Los Angeles Dodgers host the Seattle Mariners at home. Finally, one of the team’s best left-handed bats and starting third baseman, looks to make his return to a lineup that has undoubtedly been lacking at times. Remember that before getting injured, Muncy had 28 RBIs, 24 runs scored, 31 hits and 8 doubles, plus a .798 OPS over 40 games. Not bad.
Tommy Edman..
One of the trade deadline acquisitions of the Los Angeles DodgersTommy Edman, who has not played in the MLB throughout this season, hopes to be activated this Monday against the same Seattle Mariners. Edman is 5’10 tall, 190 pounds, 29 years old and five of them with the St. Louis Cardinals in the Major Leagues, comes from a 2023 where he recorded 25 doubles, 27 stolen bases, 119 hits and 69 runs scored.
It should be noted that Tommy Edman has not been able to debut this 2024 due to a right wrist injury, from which he has fully recovered and as if that were not enough, he has been on fire with the bat since he was assigned to Triple-A to begin his rehabilitation. There he posted. 333 AVG with 4 runs scored and 5 hits in 5 games in the Dodgers branch.
Both players represent a great strength both offensively and defensively for the Dodgers infield, who, after having total dominance in their division, now find themselves threatened by the Arizona Diamondbacks and San Diego Padres on their heels, less than 4 games apart.
