Dodgers Exercise 2019 Team Option on Dave Roberts, Still No Extension
The Los Angeles Dodgers have made two consecutive World Series appearances, and one of the guys responsible for that success is coming back.
Pedro Moura of The Athletic is reporting that Dave Roberts’ option for this next season is being exercised with the hope that the two parties can eventually agree to a new long-term deal.
Roberts was originally hired by the Dodgers before the 2016 season, and he has delivered impressive results for the franchise thus far.
In his three seasons at the helm, he has won three NL West titles, made two World Series appearances, and has averaged about 96 wins per season.
