Former Seattle Mariners first baseman Justin Turner leveled heavy criticism against ownership of the team for their unwillingness to spend money to add offensive talent this offseason.

The Mariners acquired Turner before the trade deadline from Toronto last July in a deal that sent minor league outfielder RJ Schreck to the Blue Jays. After joining the M’s, Turner slashed .264/.363/.404 with seven doubles, five home runs and 24 RBIs, providing the team with much-needed production in the middle of the order.
