Max Muncy is one of the great success stories in Dodgers history. Signed to a minor league contract at age 26 after a pair of underwhelming seasons with the Oakland A’s, Muncy has been a productive member of a team that has won four pennants and three championships during his first eight years in Los Angeles.

The deal Muncy finalized Thursday keeps him under contract for two more seasons plus a club option for 2028 as well. That gives him a chance to add to his already prodigious totals with the Dodgers.

Muncy has two seasons with 36 home runs and two more with 35. The only other Dodger with that many seasons of at least 35 homers is Duke Snider, with five straight years of 40-plus. Muncy in June hit his 200th home run with the Dodgers, and ended the year with 209 home runs, good for seventh place in franchise history.

Most home runs, Dodgers history
  1. Duke Snider 389
  2. Gil Hodges 361
  3. Eric Karros 270
  4. Roy Campanella 242
  5. Ron Cey 228
  6. Steve Garvey 211
  7. Max Muncy 209
  8. Matt Kemp 203
  9. Carl Furillo 192
  10. Mike Piazza 177

Injuries have interrupted Muncy’s last two seasons, with 15 home runs in roughly half a season in 2024 and 19 home runs in 100 games in 2025. If Muncy hits another 19 home runs in 2026, he’ll tie Ron Cey for fifth place on the Dodgers list. At least 33 home runs gets Muncy into fourth place.
