Well, it’s official: Justin Turner has signed with the Red Sox. Nearly three weeks after the agreement was announced, Boston finally made the signing official on Friday.
The #RedSox today signed INF Justin Turner to a one-year contract for the 2023 season, with a player option for 2024. https://t.co/NnB3Q6YutT
Chris Cotillo has the breakdown on the dollar figures for JT’s new contract with the Red Sox.
It’s a good deal for Turner. The Dodgers declined a $16 million team option for 2023 and opted for a $2 million buyout instead, and this new deal for Turner guarantees him at least $15 million, so he’s coming out at least a million dollars ahead.
