"Here's the thing, I'm entitled to an opinion, as we all are. Fortunately, unfortunately, I don't have a vote. I still think the game is in a great spot and everyone is winning. It's the greatest game and it's a lot of fun,"
"For me, I'm focused on 2026. I was asked a question and I answered it honestly. But again, my opinion shouldn't move the needle. There's people that are going to have those conversations. For me, I love where the game is at and I love the game of baseball."
"As far as your question about the players, each player knows how much I care about them and their well-being. I'm not concerned with that at all."
The Los Angeles Dodgers' large payroll and consecutive championships have made them central to the MLB salary-cap debate. Manager Dave Roberts voiced support for an NBA-style cap that includes a floor, while emphasizing he lacks a vote and does not expect his opinion to sway players. The potential salary cap will be a major issue between owners and the MLBPA when the collective bargaining agreement expires December 1, 2026. The MLBPA, led by Executive Director Tony Clark, believes a salary cap would harm baseball. Roberts remains focused on 2026 and confident in his standing with players.
