""Never in a million years," Muncy said earlier in Spring Training. "That was part of the issue with who I was in Oakland, I didn't fully believe in myself. There's no way I would have ever imagined I could have gotten to this point. It's been a special journey for me, and it's one that I'm extremely grateful for.""
""He has, certainly, a different path of getting here," manager Dave Roberts said. "What captures Max is he loves being a Dodger. He's taken less money, did not challenge the free-agent market, because he wanted to be here. And so that's something, for me, you want as many players to be a part of this organization that just want to be here.""
