The Dodgers and veteran infielder Miguel Rojas agreed to reunite on a one-year, $5.5 million deal on Wednesday, a source told MLB.com. The club has not confirmed the deal.
Rojas, who hit the game-tying home run in the ninth inning of World Series Game 7 that set the table for the Dodgers to repeat as champions, has said that the 2026 season will be his last in the big leagues. He was open about his desire to return to Los Angeles, with whom he made his Major League debut in 2014, for his final year.
Primarily serving in a bench role, Rojas hit .262 and played quality defense at second base, third base and shortstop in 2025. He was a finalist for the NL Gold Glove at the utility position.
An unlikely Fall Classic hero, Rojas started the final two games of the World Series at second base after more than three weeks of not being in the starting lineup. With the Dodgers down to their final two outs, he saved the season with an improbable solo homer off Blue Jays closer Jeff Hoffman that ultimately allowed L.A. to win in 11 innings to secure the ninth championship in franchise history.
