The Dodgers getting back Justin Turner solved more than just a need for a leader. Granted, the leadership that comes with Turner is difficult to find, and adding him in brings an edge to the team heading for another title.
But what the Dodgers were lacking before his signing was a third baseman. Los Angeles was set to enter the 2021 season without a true playmaker over at the hot corner, possibly relying on the performance of a few unproven names in terms of defense.
