At long last, Trea Turner is on his way to join the Nationals. Turner is headed to Double-A Harrisburg today, according to Mike Saeger, the play-by-play announcer for the Padres’ Double-A affiliate (on Twitter).
Turner, of course, was shipped from the Padres to the Nationals in December’s three-way deal involving Wil Myers and the Rays. However, Turner was termed as a player to be named later in the swap since he was not eligible to be traded at the time. The agent for the shortstop prospect, Jeff Berry of CAA, expressed concern about his client’s situation almost immediately.
