Trea Turner played six and a half seasons in D.C. following the three-team deal in 2015 which brought him over from the San Diego Padres along with starter Joe Ross.
In his time in D.C., the now-28-year-old infielder put up a .300/.356/.486 line, 135 doubles, 32 triples, and 93 home runs in 637 games and 2,803 plate appearances, but he was dealt to the LA Dodgers last July as part of the sell-off at the deadline which kicked of the reboot of the Nationals’ organization.
Turner, who played a pivotal role on the 2019 World Series championship team, and Daniel Hudson, the closer in Washington between 2019-21, who recorded the final out in ‘19, both returned to Nationals Park last night as part of the 2022 LA Dodgers’ roster, and prior to the game, their former manager talked about what it meant to have them both in town this week.
