Trea Turner has just signed with the Philadelphia Phillies on a huge 11-year deal. And he will be teaming up with close friend and former Washington Nationals teammate Bryce Harper. And if the rumors are rife, then Harper is believed to have played a huge part in luring Turner to Philadelphia.

Notably, given his immense talent, Turner’s signing will only bolster the Phillies’ roster and prepare them for a title run in 2023. Trea Turner, however, before moving on to the next chapter of his career, had one last thing left to say to the Dodgers’ fans.

Trea Turner says goodbye to Dodgers fans:

In a special message before he starts playing for the Phillies, Turner said goodbye to his Dodgers fans. He replied to a goodbye message from the Los Angeles Dodgers. And said “Thank you @dodgers fans! Was blast playing in front of all of you! Memories I’ll never forget! 🤟🏼”

For those unversed, Turner had a great 2022 season with the Dodgers and will be beginning his new chapter in his best form. The All-Star adds to an already deep Phillies batting lineup and will bring new energy to their fielding as well.
