The Marlins were reportedly shopping Turner during spring training. Now any plans to trade him this season are likely gone or will result in little return.
Turner posted a 3-8 record in 2013 with a 3.74 ERA and a 1.44 WHIP. In his lone start this season he went six innings allowing five runs on eight hits and three walks.
