LAS VEGAS — Late Tuesday afternoon, manager Dave Roberts had his scheduled media appearance at the Winter Meetings. MLB schedules a 30-minute media session for each manager and Roberts was one of the last managers scheduled on Tuesday.
This was the first time Roberts had met with the media since his four-year extension was announced last week.
“I’m happy, I’m ecstatic, I’m excited” Roberts said when asked about his extension. “We knew it was going to happen, I’m happy it got done and I’m thrilled.”
While not being specific about any particular rumored move, Roberts said the team was “kicking around” different scenarios.
