The Los Angeles Dodgers are coming off yet another incredible campaign. L.A. won the National League West for the 11th time in 12 years and are one win away from their fourth World Series appears in the last eight years.
The Dodgers have been the gold standard for baseball in the last handful of seasons, and a big part of that is because of nine-year manager Dave Roberts. Like him or not, you cannot deny the positive impact he has made on the clubhouse and beyond.
Roberts is a class act, and not only do the Dodgers know it but so do other managers in the league, like Pittsburgh Pirates manager Derek Shelton.
