After nine fantastic years with the Dodgers, Justin Turner is changing coasts for another big market franchise.
Turner has reportedly agreed to a two-year deal worth just under $22 million with the Red Sox, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. The contract includes an opt-out clause after the first year.
With Rafael Devers at third base, Turner is expected to spend most of his time as Boston’s designated hitter. Turner played in 128 games last season for the Dodgers, batting .278/.350/.438 with 13 home runs and 81 RBIs.
