Muncy (elbow) played first base in the Dodgers' simulated game Tuesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Muncy's health has been a major question mark since he injured his left elbow in last year's regular-season finale, but the recent news on that front has been encouraging. He's apparently 85 percent recovered from the injury and has been participating in workouts with the intention of being ready for Opening Day. While the introduction of the universal designated hitter should make it easier to keep him in the lineup early in the year if he's not yet at 100 percent, it looks as though he may not find himself limited to that role.
