Dodgers 2016 Season Previews: Justin Turner

The 31-year old “Red Dream” is entering his third season with the Dodgers. Turner has turned into not only a fan favorite, but an essential player to the Dodgers over the past few years. *Turn down for what….*

On February 5, 2014 Justin Turner signed a minor league contract with the boys in blue that also included an invitation to spring training. It did not take long for the Dodgers to see his potential. On March 16, 2014 the Dodgers purchased his contract and added him to the forty man roster.

Turner had a breakout season in 2014 after getting additional playing time due to injuries to Hanley Ramirez and Juan Uribe.
