Brandon Gomes: Miguel Rojas 'Incredibly Impactful' For Dodgers
"Fresh off his heroic performance in the World Series, a reunion between the Dodgers and Rojas made sense for both parties. Rojas re-signed with the Dodgers on a one-year, $5.5 million contract. The Dodgers gain another season with Rojas and more time to pinpoint his replacement from a roster construction standpoint. Meanwhile, the soon-to-be 37-year-old will have the opportunity to compete for one final World Series in what he has already announced will be his last season in the Majors."
"Obviously, Miggy is a dynamic player, person, and we know what he's capable of on the field. Looking out, this is something that he's passionate about, and you can see that in his day-to-day work. His ability to impact the organization in different ways, especially spending time around younger players, and just that work ethic he brings, and the knowledge and obviously Major League success, we feel like he can be incredibly impactful."
"In three seasons since returning to the Dodgers in 2023, Rojas has hit .259/.313/.372 while playing defense all four infield spots. This past season, he was a finalist for the Gold Glove Award among utility infielders. While Rojas did not win the award, he was honored for the second consecutive year as the Roy Campanella Award winner, which is annually given to the Dodgers player who best exemplifies the spirit and leadership of the late Hall of Fame catcher."
