The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Max Muncy will not be in the team's lineup
On Monday night, the Los Angeles Dodgers will begin a three-game series against the NL West rival Colorado Rockies at Dodger Stadium.
The Dodgers most recently won their series against the Milwaukee Brewers 2-1, winning the final two games of the series.
Max Muncy was out of the team’s lineup during the final two games as he had to depart Friday’s loss after suffering a wrist injury following a hit-by-pitch.
