"As fate would have it, the two parties agreed to a deal, and the man they call "Miggy Ro" will be back in the clubhouse for all intents and purposes functioning as a player-coach. Speaking of which, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times also reported that once Rojas finishes next season, he will stay with the organization as a player development coach."
"A utility player that's had to grind for everything in his career, Rojas is emblematic of a guy who understands the bigger picture. Being a team-first player has always been his mantra, and that sort of selflessness is arguably the most defining characteristic of the star-studded Dodgers. The moment in which he hit the game-tying home run versus the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 7 of the World Series will forever be etched into Dodgers lore."
Miguel Rojas signed a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers worth $5.5 million and plans to play one final MLB season before retiring. Rojas will function as a player-coach during the upcoming year and is expected to remain with the organization as a player development coach after his playing days end. Rojas is a respected clubhouse leader and utility player known for a team-first mentality and consistent grind. His game-tying home run in Game 7 of the World Series is a defining franchise moment, and he is motivated to help the Dodgers pursue a possible three-peat.
