LOS ANGELES — They are the two longest-tenured players in the Dodgers organization.
But as Major League Baseball's offseason began in earnest Tuesday, kicking off with the league's general manager meetings, the futures of Clayton Kershaw and Justin Turner remained in doubt.
Kershaw is a free agent for the second straight winter and appears once again likely to pick between a return to the Dodgers — who have until Thursday to decide whether to extend him a qualifying offer — or a homecoming with the Texas Rangers.
