The Dodgers and infielder Max Muncy have agreed to a contract extension, according to an announcement from the team. Under the previous extension he signed with the Dodgers, they had a $13M club option for his services in 2023.
That will now become guaranteed at $13.5M, with the Dodgers now holding a $10M club option for 2024, plus incentives，and there’s no buyout on the 2024 option.Nice looking mlb jersey
This extension is a bit of an early birthday present for Muncy, as he will turn 32 years old on Thursday. The lefty slugger was a late bloomer by major league baseball standards, having his breakout season in 2018 at the age of 27.chicago white sox jersey
After those two strong seasons, Muncy finally reached arbitration for the first time in his career, at the age of 29. He and the club didn’t come to an agreement, with the club filing for $4M while Muncy’s camp submitted a $4.675M.
Before the hearing took place, the two sides agreed to a longer-term pact, running through 2022 with the option for 2023. Since Muncy was on pace to reach free agency after 2022, that extension effectively relinquished one year of free agency while allowing him to guarantee himself $26M in future earnings, and potentially more.
