Despite the looming possibility he’s playing elsewhere next season, Turner is a native of Southern California and appears dedicated to keeping a presence in the area. Turner has spent the last three seasons with the Dodgers. In his most recent campaign, he developed into a middle-of-the-order threat. Turner is said to be seeking a five-year contract.
