Venezuelan Miguel Rojas announced his retirement as an active major league player after 13 seasons in which he won two World Series titles with the Los Angeles Dodgers (2024 and 2025).
At 37, the Venezuelan made his retirement official, after the elimination of the Dodgers against the Milwaukee Brewers, in the National League Championship Series.
“This was the last time I wore this uniform as a player. From now on I'm going to start my career in the other part of this business and I'm looking forward to doing it with the Los Angeles Dodgers. I'm ready to move forward and start this new chapter of my career,” Rojas said in statements to the media, according to Extrabases.
The Los Teques native played 1,401 games over 13 seasons in the big leagues. He hit 1,048 hits, including 210 doubles and 61 home runs, and drove in 386 runs. He finished with an average of .260, on-base percentage of .313, slugging of .363 and OPS of .677.
