Dodgers Lock In Max Muncy, Bring Back Kiké Hernández — More Than Depth?
Max Muncy is staying in LA as the Los Angeles Dodgers agree to a one-year, $10 million extension for 2027 with a 2028 club option, and AJ Pierzynski, Erik Kratz and Scott Braun break down why Muncy chose stability, what it says about the Dodgers’ winning culture, and how it impacts their long-term plans, plus reactions to Kiké Hernández returning, Paul Sewald heading back to the Arizona Diamondbacks, Miles Mikolas signing with the Washington Nationals, and Ronald Acuña Jr. declaring he’s healthy for the Atlanta Braves as camps ramp up.

I usually don't comment on videos but when I do I'm first
absolutely zero, no reason for the Dodgers to do this. for either player.
Hey Scott, where's your energy man!! Come on!!
Only 10 million!!!! That’s a big overpay for an aging fatso that’s often injured
Let's keep this in mind if for one year finally the Dodgers do not log the most days on the ill by their team what do you think they're going to be able to do what's in winning games and how good are they I don't think anybody knows yet but I can tell you they're scary
Tortas in Minnesota have been spotted rocking Banda Twins gear already.
1 year 4.5mil for Hernandez
If Muncy might get more elsewhere, why wouldn't the Dodgers raise the offer to meet what he would get as a thank you or for good faith? It's only a few million which is nothing to them
Kike, Rojas and Muncy have proved over and over again they deliver in tough spots.
It’s crazy to think when he first came onto the scene as a dodger, but Muncy has a real good chance being a top 10 dodger ever between his stats and rings
Wish Kike was still on the Red Sox. He was awesome and such a fun positive guy
Max Muncy 2025 OPS: .846
Kyle Tucker: .841
Great for Muncy.
Muncy has been a bargain for his entire Dodgers Career. 62 mil for 27 war. One of my favorite player of all time.
Muncy crushes baseballs. Ask mad bum!
I hope the Funky Muncy can retire a Dodger
Bring back Kiké, extend Muncy. Rinse and three-peat…😅
I doubt Muncy cares about money as much as he cares he's on a team that won three rings. He's 36 in August and got to stay where he belongs.
Great signings of key position players. Go Dodgers in 2026⚾️🏆💪💙🤍👍.
Kiki is 🌈 just like the dodgers
Muncy is one of the most underrated players of this generation. dodgers offense clicks diff when he's logging those ABs
Muncy's missed time with injuries these past two seasons, but if you look at his combined totals from 2024-2025, his value is huge.
He's had 681 PAs and 550 ABs – basically a full season.
His numbers:
34 HR / 115 RBI / 95 R
138 OPS+ / 6.6 WAR
And his numbers with RISP have been phenomenal – he had a 1.151 OPS with RISP in 2025
And they win with him in the lineup.
