Rojas posted strong defense in 2025, with a .983 fielding percentage and eight RBIs in the postseason, underscoring his ongoing impact.

The Dodgers have agreed to a one-year, $5.5 million contract with Miguel Rojas for 2026, keeping him in Los Angeles as a veteran presence who will contribute on the field and help with player development and potential front office duties in 2027.

He is widely regarded as a Dodgers legend, highlighted by his Game 7 World Series-winning homer that helped seal the championship.

The move comes as the Dodgers, fresh off consecutive World Series titles, aim for a potential three-peat under president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman and the current front office.

The team projects a championship-contending 2026 season with Shohei Ohtani and a strong supporting cast in place to chase a third straight title.

The deal reinforces a player-friendly culture under Friedman and strengthens loyalty in a star-driven market.

While the Dodgers have not officially announced the deal publicly in the report, multiple sources confirmed the agreement.

Rojas remains focused on contributing to the Dodgers’ offense and defense as they pursue a three-peat, prioritizing keeping the core intact for one more year.

The agreement was reported by Daniel Álvarez-Montes of El Extrabase on December 3, 2025, and later highlighted by FantasyPros.

Career stats highlight a .273 batting average, .328 on-base, .404 slugging, 654 plate appearances, and a notably low strikeout rate.

Rojas’ return is seen as a smart move to bolster the roster, with ongoing consideration of outfield additions and other moves via free agency or the trade market.

Teammates, including Mookie Betts, have acknowledged his leadership, and he won the Roy Campanella Award for the second straight year.
