Justin Turner developed into a star after he was non-tendered by the New York Mets and signed a Minor League contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers prior to the 2014 season. His play led to Turner re-signing with the club on a four-year, $64 million contract last winter.
Not one to rest on his accomplishments, Turner earned his way to a first career All-Star Game last season. And now, heading into the 2018 season, he was ranked the fourth-best third baseman by MLB Network’s The Shredder.
Turner placed No. 5 on the list last year. MLB Network’s Brian Kenny and Mike Lowell also included Turner on their top 10 lists, with Kenny ranking him fourth while Lowell put Turner at No.
