On the first day of the MLB offseason, the Los Angeles Dodgers and heavy hitter Max Muncy agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $24 million, the team announced Thursday. The contract includes a $10 million club option for 2026.

Muncy earned $13.5 million in 2023 as part of the one-year extension he signed last August. That contract included a $10 million club option for 2024 and bonuses tied to plate appearances raised it to $14 million. The new contract overrides the club option and will keep Muncy locked up through 2025, with a club option for 2026.

Muncy produced a .212/.333/.475 batting stat line with 36 home runs this season. It’s his fourth 35-homer season since joining the Dodgers in 2018.
