Muncy Reflects on Back-to-Back World Series Titles and Upcoming Season
Beyond his family joys, Muncy is preparing for his ninth season with the Dodgers after the team exercised his club option through 2026. Discussing his recent championship successes, Muncy admitted,
“It hasn’t really set in yet. We’re already getting ready for the next season.”
The rigorous schedule has taken its toll, as he noted,
“When your offseason is that short, your body doesn’t get a full chance to recover. That’s where you start seeing the toll it takes over a long season.”
With Muncy returning, the Dodgers maintain their strong infield core. The team also recently signed four-time All-Star outfielder Kyle Tucker, signaling their ongoing commitment to contending for another World Series title.
