Justin Turner has proven to be a pivotal part of the 2023 Red Sox. It’s far from a guarantee though that he’s on the team next season.
The Red Sox designated hitter and corner infielder signed a two-year deal last offseason with an option for the second season that still allows him to earn money from the team.
As a big decision awaits Turner, the 38-year-old (who turns 39 in November) isn’t ready to make a 2024 commitment.
“I’m not even there yet. That’s for after the season and we’ll figure it out when that comes,” Turner told reporters now which way he might be leaning, via MassLive’s Chris Cottilo.
