A year later, and with his elbow and his once-struggling swing finally back to normal, the memories that once haunted Muncy are now driving him. When he was hurt last year, Muncy was finishing off an All-Star-caliber season that included 36 home runs, 94 RBIs and inclusion into the MVP conversation. On a World Series-minded Dodgers team, he was one of the lineup's most important offensive threats, his thunderous left-handed swing key to a club trying to defend its 2020 championship. For the next several weeks, he did what he could to help the Dodgers behind the scenes. Though Muncy was healthy in time for opening day, his elbow (which he rehabbed over the winter without surgery) didn't feel right.
