Justin Turner has spent the last nine seasons with the Dodgers, ever since he signed as a minor-league free agent prior to the 2014 season. The SoCal native, who grew up rooting for the Dodgers, has become an integral part of L.A.’s team identity both on and off the field.
Now, for the third time since he came home to Los Angeles, Turner is a free agent. Each of the first two times he hit free agency, he ended up re-signing with the Dodgers, and both he and the team would like that to be the case again this year.
