Blue Jays Justin Turner was just traded in the middle of their game against the Orioles to Seattle.
Turner was pulled from the game in the second inning after getting a hit in his first plate appearance.
Justin Turner has been removed from the game in the 2nd #BlueJays
The Mariners are acquiring Justin Turner from the Blue Jays, per source. @Ken_Rosenthal was on it.
Since Turner was only on a 1 year deal, it was clear he would be moved before the deadline. The Blue Jays will be getting a 24 year old outfielder RJ Schrek.
Blue Jays acquiring OF RJ Schreck source tells @ShiDavidi & me.
24-year-old was taken in 9th round out of Vanderbilt last year. Was just promoted to AA. Hitting .250/.392/.444 in A+/AA this year with 12 HR in minors.
