When the Dodgers traded for Max Scherzer and Trea Turner last offseason, getting the star shortstop was a surprise. After all, they were pretty set there at the position with Corey Seager, and many hoped that he would sign a long-term deal to stick around.
But as we all know, Corey did not stick around. He signed a massive deal with the Rangers to become their shortstop for the foreseeable future. So the natural assumption was that the Dodgers would then sign Turner to an extension to keep him around.
But here we are, a few months into the season, and Trea Turner does not have a deal.
