According to a slew of reports, the Philadelphia Phillies and two-time All-Star shortstop Trea Turner came to terms on an 11-year/$300 million free-agent contract Monday.
The deal, according to Audacy Sports MLB Insider Jon Heyman, features a full no-trade clause and no opt outs. The structure seems pretty similar to the 13-year/$330 million deal that Bryce Harper signed to join the Phillies ahead of the 2019 season.
As you can imagine, Phillies Twitter had quite a bit to say after news broke of Turner's signing:
The Phillies still have about $34M to spend before hitting the second luxury tax threshold

there was never a doubt that Trea Turner would end up in red pinstripes once Bryce said this on the live broadcast https://t.co/3O4L6rNpPp
