The Dodgers have made significant investments this offseason, including extending manager Dave Roberts' contract, making him the highest-paid manager in MLB history. Although this title was not a goal for the organization, it reflects their appreciation for Roberts' accomplishments since 2016, including multiple National League pennants and World Series championships. Following a season marked by managerial challenges, particularly with injuries to the pitching staff, fans are eager to see how Roberts leads the revamped roster through the remainder of his contract, which extends through 2029.
Dodgers president Stan Kasten remarked, 'Make him the highest paid manager? That was kind of a fun byproduct. Wasn't a goal of ours, we don't set goals like that.'
Since taking over in 2016, Roberts has four National League pennants, a Manager of the Year award, and two World Series rings.
Last season required Roberts to showcase managerial brilliance, especially during October amidst constant injuries to the pitching staff.
Fan anticipation builds as Roberts leads a retooled roster through a historic contract stretching until 2029.
