The Los Angeles Dodgers announced a one-year, $10 million extension with veteran third baseman Max Muncy on Thursday.

The deal includes a $7 million salary for the 2027 season and a $10 million club option for 2028 that includes a $3 million buyout.

He will earn $10 million in 2026.

Muncy, 35, is a two-time All-Star and three-time World Series champion entering his ninth season with L.A. in 2026.

He batted .243 with 19 homers and 67 RBIs in 100 games last season and added three homers in the playoffs.

Muncy's World Series Game 7 homer against the Toronto Blue Jays was his 16th in the postseason, a team record.

He is a career .229 hitter with 214 homers and 604 RBIs in 1,020 games for the Oakland A's (2015-16) and Dodgers.
