Justin Turner's Wife Trolls Mets 6 Years to the Day After They Non-Tendered Him
By Andy Loughmiller
Former NLCS co-MVP Justin Turner will enter his seventh season with the Los Angles Dodgers in 2020. Being non-tendered by the New York Mets in 2013 might have been the best thing to ever happen to him.
Turner's wife seems to agree with that sentiment. She took to Twitter on Monday to inform the world that she and her husband have not forgotten the day the Mets decided to allow the third baseman to become a free agent.

Monday marks the six-year anniversary of when the Mets non-tendered Turner.
Although he is certainly one of the better third basemen in the MLB, the 35-year-old wasn't overly productive during his time in New York. The Mets' decision to not keep him around was the correct one...at the time.
Eh deadline is the same every year, no Tom Petty here. Just nice to take a moment to acknowledge the journey. ?

Kourtney Turner was likely just having some fun, but she ought to bring it down a notch, especially since she conveniently left out the part about the Mets defeating the Dodgers in the 2015 National League Division Series.
Perhaps this wasn't the smartest move, but we applaud her pettiness and troll game.
