The Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers have announced that their parent club has signed infielder Max Muncy, apparently to a minor-league deal. He’ll play for Oklahoma City.
The Athletics outrighted Muncy last winter. He played a handful of games with them in Spring Training, but it appears they released him at some point. He has not yet appeared in the Majors or minors in the regular season.
The 26-year-old Muncy has collected 245 big-league plate appearances with the A’s over the past two seasons, batting .195/.290/.321. He’s batted .262/.355/.407 while playing five positions (first, second, third and the outfield corners) over his career at the Triple-A level, indicating that he’s a solid depth option in the high minors, perhaps especially for a team like the Dodgers, who currently have a variety of position players on the DL.
A max of all trades, but master of none?
I’m going to miss his reporting for the Saturday Evening Post.
Sigh. More Dodgers front office wishful thinking.
Its called a minor leauge deal. Sure seemed to work for turner and toles. Justin masterson is looking promising at the moment.
Love your perspectives and optimism dodgerfan! This one just strikes me as we have a need for a guy who can play anywhere in OKC, given the injuries and need for a revolving door with the big club. Undoubtedly, Farhan has history with Max and believes he’ll be a good utility fit. I doubt this guy ever sees the big club though.
