He's been doing the job in a tough hitting environment. So the same argument that applied to Kemp applies to him in terms of the likelihood being that his offensive numbers will improve if he moved away from San Diego.
His contract is team friendly. I especially like the fact that 2019 and 2020 are option years. This limits the downside for the team.
Turner would have come here for 4/44 if he knew how much of an x-factor Snitker is.

"Folty how did you feel about the bullpen's strong work the last 3 innings to help get you that win?"
"Well you know we protect each other on this team, in this locker room. It's just guys going out there and protecting each other"
"Freddie, what has Kemp brought to this team and lineup when he's hitting as well as he is?"
"Well I mean he's brought over an attitude of protecting his teammates you know. I think the guys in the locker room see that type of leadership and we're all looking out for each other"
"Snit, what did you think of Bartolo's ejection for throwing at Harper?"
"Well you know it's just baseball. He's out there protecting his teammate from yesterday. The guys are just out there everyday protecting each other on that field".
