In a recent article, Boston Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy claimed the Boston Red Sox should trade a number of players, including third baseman Justin Turner. That did not go down well with Turner's wife Kourtney.

Kourtney came up with a sarcastic response to the article, saying:

"Don’t have time to read that, I’m helping my geriatric husband pick up something off the ground."

Shaughnessy's article sparked a debate as he claimed the Red Sox should sell off their assets despite being in contention for a playoff spot.
