Triple-A Las Vegas placed Muncy on the 7-day injured list Aug. 23 with an unspecified injury. After missing nearly two months of game action with a hand injury earlier this summer, Muncy returned to the Las Vegas lineup July 19, only to go down with another injury just over a month later. Muncy had been raking at the plate prior to his latest setback on the health front, slashing .280/.371/.530 with six home runs, five doubles and a triple in 27 games following his initial return from the IL.

Muncy owns a .259/.328/.519 slash line with two doubles, four home runs, 13 RBI, four walks and 10 runs across 61 plate appearances over his first 15 games with Triple-A Las Vegas since returning from the injured list July 19. A significant chunk of Muncy's counting stats in that sample came a few days ago when he recorded a double, three home runs, eight RBI and five runs in a career performance against Albuquerque. Muncy's overall numbers during his first foray against Triple-A pitching this season are encouraging, as he's forged a .268 average and .830 OPS across 148 plate appearances with the Aviators. The prospect's 25.0 percent strikeout rate and 8.1 percent walk rate are also both adequate while still having some room for improvement, and despite the fact there are currently several Athletics experiencing offensive surges, it would seem highly likely Muncy gets his first taste of the big leagues before the end of the season.

Muncy (hand) started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 with a solo home run Friday in Triple-A Las Vegas' 4-2 loss to Salt Lake in his return from the 7-day injured list. Muncy made his first appearance for Las Vegas since May 14 after missing just over two months with a hand injury. Prior to being activated, Muncy had an eight-game rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, during which he slashed .379/.400/.724 with six extra-base hits and a stolen base.

Muncy (hand) played DH and went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts during a rehab game with the Athletics' Arizona Complex League affiliate on Saturday. Saturday's contest marked Muncy's first game action since May 14, when he was placed on the IL with a hand injury. The 21-year-old has battled injuries for most of 2024 but has shined when healthy, posting an .817 OPS in 87 plate appearances with Triple-A Las Vegas.

Triple-A Las Vegas placed Muncy (hand) on the 7-day injured list May 17, Athletics Farm reports. This is Muncy's second IL stint of the season, as he was also shelved with an injury from April 24 through May 10. Per the report, Muncy isn't doing much baseball-related activity, so he might not be ready to return when eligible this weekend. The middle infielder is slashing .274/.379/.438 with two home runs, three steals and a 23 percent strikeout rate in 22 games. Muncy, 21, is the fifth-youngest hitter with at least 80 plate appearances at Triple-A.
