Cubs' Justin Turner: Gets $6 million deal
Turner agreed to terms Tuesday with the Cubs on a one-year, $6 million contract, Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports.
The 40-year-old Turner will join the eighth organization of his career in 2025 after he slashed .259/.354/.383 with 11 home runs over 139 games between the Blue Jays and Mariners last season. Mooney relays that it's "unclear to what extent" the Cubs might consider Turner as an option at third base, where top prospect Matt Shaw (oblique) is the favorite to win the job. The Cubs' plan for now seems to be for Turner to see most of his playing time on the short side of a platoon at first base with Michael Busch, while also getting occasional starts at designated hitter.

Justin Turner: Nearing deal with Cubs
Turner is close to reaching agreement with the Cubs on a one-year contract, Patrick Mooney of The Athletic reports.
Expect the two sides to come to terms on the deal at some point this week, which would give the 40-year-old ample time to get himself prepared for Opening Day. While splitting time between the Blue Jays and Mariners last season, Turner played in 139 games and slashed .259/.354/.383 with 11 home runs, 55 RBI and 59 runs across 539 plate appearances. Though he primarily served as a first baseman and designated hitter in 2024, Turner made four starts at third base between his two stops and could be an option at the hot corner if prospect Matt Shaw (oblique) isn't deemed ready to handle a full-time role with the big club coming out of spring training. Once the Cubs feel confident Shaw is capable of handling an everyday gig, Turner could see most his playing time at first base, where he would occupy the short side of platoon with Michael Busch.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Extends impressive on-base streak
Turner went 1-for-5 with a two-run single in a win over the Astros on Wednesday, extending his on-base streak to 20 games.
Turner has also reached safely in 24 straight starts, and he owns a .302/.396/.500 slash line with a 14.2 percent walk rate and 17.0 percent strikeout rate over that span. Those numbers are reminiscent of vintage Turner from the pinnacle of his career with the Dodgers, and his contributions have played an integral part in keeping the Mariners in contention for an AL wild-card spot.

Mariners' Justin Turner: In Sunday's lineup
Turner (knee) will start at first base and bat fifth Sunday against the Rangers.

As he approaches his 40th birthday in November, Turner's MLB future is uncertain, but he's shown signs of life with a .303/.398/.494 batting line and four homers in his last 26 games for Seattle.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Delivers as late lineup addition
Turner went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk and two runs in a win over the Cardinals on Sunday.
Turner was a late lineup replacement for Victor Robles (elbow) and made good use of his inclusion into the starting nine, pushing his season OBP to a stellar .344 with his trio of trips on the basepaths. The 39-year-old is showing he still has plenty of life in his bat, now having authored three multi-hit efforts in his last eight games and furnishing a .321 average and 1.031 OPS across 33 plate appearances in that stretch.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Multi-hit tally in win
Turner went 2-for-5 with a double in a win over the Cardinals on Friday.
The veteran extended his recent stretch of hot hitting with Friday's production, which pushed his average over the last seven games to .320 (8-for-25). Turner has three of his five extra-base hits with the Mariners in that span, and he's also striking out at just a 10.0 percent clip within that sample of 30 plate appearances.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Clubs two homers in loss
Turner went 3-for-5 with two solo homers in Saturday's loss to the Angels.
Turner launched a leadoff shot to left field in his first trip to the plate to put Seattle on the board before then adding a second leadoff homer in the fourth to give his team the lead. The first baseman would go on to reach three times in the contest while posting his first three-hit effort as a member of the Mariners. It marked Turner's second two-homer performance of the season, and he's now driven in and scored at least one run in back-to-back games. The long balls were only his eighth and ninth of the campaign.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Back on bench Sunday
Turner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
Turner had started in six of the Mariners' previous seven contests, but all but one of those came against left-handed starting pitchers. The 39-year-old looks like he'll fill the short side of a platoon at first base with Luke Raley while Seattle has all of its key bats available.
