Dodgers Nearing Historic Contract Extension with Manager Dave Roberts

The deal is expected to set a new record for MLB managers and could be finalized before the team departs for the Tokyo Series next week.

Dave Roberts and the Los Angeles Dodgers are close to finalizing a long-term contract extension, according to multiple reports.
The new deal is expected to surpass the current managerial record of $8 million per year, held by Craig Counsell of the Chicago Cubs.
Roberts, 52, has led the Dodgers to two World Series championships, four National League pennants, and eight division titles during his nine-year tenure.
With a .627 winning percentage, Roberts holds the highest managerial win rate in MLB history and ranks sixth in postseason victories.
The extension talks, ongoing since February, are anticipated to conclude before the Dodgers travel to Japan to open their season against the Cubs on March 18 and 19.
