As a life-long Dodger fan and a big fan of Turner's game, I hate to see him go. But the writing - that someone was going to way over pay for 4 or 5 years of top productivity - was on the wall.
At least in Turner's case, he went to a team that's just coming off a WS appearance. His predecessor at SS in Los Angeles, Corey Seager, went with the just take the money approach - a few million more over the course of a decade or so - and relinquished the chance to perennially contend for a championship... I mean things may change in Texas, but playing in LA is close to a guarantee of October baseball. Tejas? Not so much...
