In yet another brutal injury development in what has been a season full of them for the Los Angeles Dodgers, third baseman Max Muncy is officially headed to the 10-day injured list with a Grade 1 oblique strain, per Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.
Dodgers fans had been holding their breath since Wednesday, when Muncy was a late scratch from the lineup against the Angels due to side soreness that he experienced during pregame cage work. He had been considered day-to-day prior to his IL designation, with the Dodgers operating out of an abundance of caution due to Muncy's lengthy history of side injuries.
