Hanley Ramirez says he is open to extending his contract with the Dodgers if they approach him.

"Definitely, because I want to stay here," Ramirez said. "I want to stay here forever."

Ramirez will become a free agent at the end of the 2014 season. He will earn $15.5 million this year and $16 million next.

"Hopefully, I could stay here the rest of my career," Ramirez said. "But I can't control that."
