The offseason has been exciting around Major League Baseball, but multiple players on the free agent market still don’t have a home.<\/p>\n

They aren’t just some no-name players either, as\u00a0Alex Bregman<\/a>,\u00a0Pete Alonso<\/a>, and many worthy veterans around the league, even ones who have played for the\u00a0Los Angeles Dodgers<\/a>, remain available.<\/p>\n

Among the players who fit the Dodger’s description includes Justin Turner.<\/p>\n

Turner is past his glory days, but to say he isn’t a valuable option for a decent team would be unfair.<\/p>\n

All the two-time All-Star has done throughout his career is swing it with the best of them, which is evident by his career 124 OPS+. Even in 2024, playing for the\u00a0Toronto Blue Jays<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Seattle Mariners<\/a> at 39 years old, he posted a 114 OPS+ in 460 at-bats.<\/p>\n

Turner would be a valuable piece to many lineups around the league, just like Los Angeles learned for nearly a decade.<\/p>\n

He’s also a valued veteran who other players around the league respect. Even if he’s a clubhouse guy at this stage of his career and gets at-bats against left-handers, he should find a team.<\/p>\n

However, according to\u00a0Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic<\/a>, his market is on hold due to Alonso and Bregman, making things difficult.<\/p>\n

“A number of free-agent hitters are on hold while waiting for Alonso and Bregman to make their decisions. Among them: Justin Turner, Yoan Moncada, Randal Grichuk and Ty France. The available hitters also include Harrison Bader, Mark Canha, David Peralta, Tommy Pham and Anthony Rizzo,” Rosenthal wrote.<\/p>\n

If a team doesn’t sign either of the top two players available at this stage of the winter, they could look at Turner to fill in their lineup.<\/p>\n

He isn’t what Alonso and Bregman are, but expect him to land a deal once they do.<\/p>\n
