Smith, who turns 29 on Friday, was due to hit free agency following the 2025 season. Los Angeles prevented that by giving him a deal that will run through the 2033 season and keep him in the middle of one of baseball's most dangerous lineups.
Altogether, the Dodgers have committed more than $1.35 billion in future salaries this winter. By stretching Smith's deal to 10 years, the Dodgers will receive significant luxury-tax benefits.
