Overview
- Miguel Rojas, in reports Thursday via The Athletic, said he would keep playing past 2026 only if the Dodgers win a third straight World Series.
- Rojas had announced before Opening Day that this would be his final season and signed a one-year, $5.5 million contract to return.
- He is hitting .341/.375/.477 across 18 games and has been a versatile infield option and clubhouse mentor.
- Rojas says the choice to step away is about family even though he believes he can still handle roughly 100 games at shortstop.
- The Dodgers are 20-11 and viewed as title favorites, which keeps a return conceivable, though talk of re-signing remains speculative.
