BJN Radio – Ep. 194: Blue Jays sign Justin Turner, Vladdy heading to arbitration, and more

Right before recording an episode about how nothing was going on, the Blue Jays went ahead and made a free-agent signing.
The team added veteran infielder Justin Turner to a one-year contract, likely filling Brandon Belt’s role as a middle-of-the-order bat who splits time between first base and the designated hitter spot.
We talked about the addition of Turner, where he fits on the team, and what we expect next from the Blue Jays. We also talked about the addition of Yariel Rodriguez to Toronto’s pitching staff and looked at the case of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. as he heads into salary arbitration.
You can listen to the episode on Acast, Apple, or Spotify.
