Max Muncy shared details about Dodgers' winning mentality ahead of the 2025 season
On Tuesday, USA Today released an interview with Max Muncy, during which the Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman shared details of the team's winning mentality for the upcoming season. Talking about how the Dodgers are "hungrier than every" for another Championship win, Muncy said:
“We finally got the team over the hump last year, so it was a little bit of relief on that aspect. I know we won in 2020, but you want to get that full season one. And now that we did, we want to win more. We have the team to win more. So, it’s almost like we’re hungrier than ever."“I’ve always really felt that we kind of had a target on our back. Part of that is when you play at Dodger Stadium, it’s sold out on a Tuesday in July. Every (opposing) pitcher seems to find a couple of miles an hour. It’s always felt like that. People tend to find an extra edge against us," Muncy further added.
Moving forward in the interview, Muncy talked about the importance of the postseason for the players and how the team has been moving forward with the "what we can do at this moment" mentality. Talking about the same, the third baseman said:
“The most important thing is to just make the postseason. It doesn’t matter if you have 90 wins, 121 wins, it doesn’t matter what place you’re in. It really doesn’t matter at all. We’re not putting a number out there that we need to win a certain amount of games. We just want to make sure we're in the best spot to win when it comes to October."The Los Angeles Dodgers had an impressive 2024 season and would be looking forward to maintaining great momentum throughout the 2025 season. Do you think the Dodgers will succeed in winning another Championship?
