Locking Turang up for the long term could make other players in the Brewers' organization available for a trade.
Milwaukee Brewers infielder Brice Turang has emerged as a potential candidate for a contract extension this offseason. His reliably excellent defense and consistent year-to-year improvement at the plate, highlighted by a sharp increase in slugging percentage this season, combined with a market value currently tied to his performance as a second baseman, makes the idea of an extension especially appealing.
