Fantasy Impact
Muncy continues to show his slow start to the season may be well behind him as he now has five home runs on the month through just nine games as he has also connected for a hit in every game this month but one. The Dodgers' third basemen is now batting .189 on the season which is not great but his OPS is on the uptick sitting at .703. The 31 year old should be played in every game moving forward.
Max Muncy is starting on Friday after suffering a hand injury on Wednesday.

Muncy continued his hot streak at the plate on Wednesday night as he hit a homer for the second straight game, and his fourth already only a week into August. The Dodgers' third basemen started the year extremely cold but has started to slowly raise his BA which now sits at .180 with an OPS of .677. The 31 year old has showed the most patience at the plate on his team as he takes a walk a team-high 16.4% of the time.
Max Muncy went 2-for-5 at the plate on Tuesday, hitting a solo homer along with a RBI double, and striking out twice as the Dodgers went on to beat the Twins in a 10-3 game.
Fantasy Impact
Muncy has turned his season around as of lately as he has hit three home runs over the last six games. The Dodgers third basemen now has 13 home runs on the year and 41 RBI's as he has lifted both numbers well above average. The 31 year old can stay on rosters and managers who kept him through his slump are surely reaping the benefits right now.
