The Dodgers remain without a third baseman for the 2021 season. Justin Turner — a top third baseman — remains on the free agent market. This seems like an easy match made in blue heaven, but we’re now entering the third week of January and the rumors of a deal are silent.
Throughout the offseason, it’s seemed like the two sides would come together on an agreement sooner or later. However, with LA’s reported pursuit of two-time batting champion DJ LeMahieu in mind, it could be that the Dodgers are Turner are further apart in negotiations than previously expected.
