Los Angeles Dodgers and their longtime manager Dave Roberts are closer to a contract extension, ESPN reports.
Alden Gonzalez writes:
“Roberts and the Dodgers have been in serious talks on a new agreement since the beginning of February. Although it is distant from certain sections along the way, the two parties should locate a new agreement before the departure of the Dodgers for Japan, where they will open their season, next Wednesday.”
Roberts, 52, finished nine seasons as Dodgers manager, and he experienced an elite level of success during this period. During these nine seasons, Roberts guided the Dodgers to a cumulative record of 851-506, nine appearances in playoffs, eight division titles, five seasons of 100 victories, four pennants and, of course, two World Series titles – one in the season in abbreviation 2020 and one of last year.

The percentage of Roberts victories of 0.627 is at the top of all time among those who have managed at least 1,000 games Mlb. In addition, he ranks 12th of all time in most matches on .500 (344 and cash), and his 56 victories in the playoffs ranked sixth. He is currently under contract with the Dodgers until the end of the 2025 season.
Speaking of this 2025 season, the Dodgers and their list responsible for a star will be tilted to become the first repeated MLB champion since New York Yankees 1999-2000. At the same time, Roberts will try to become the 11th manager to win at least three World Series titles.
