Wed May 18 202213:24Trea Turner Back In Lineup Wednesday
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner (calf) is back in the starting lineup on Wednesday, starting at shortstop and batting third against Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zach Davies. Turner was removed from the second game of the doubleheader on Tuesday with minor calf soreness, but it's not serious enough to keep him out on Wednesday. The 28-year-old star shortstop is currently riding a 10-game hitting streak in which he's batting .359 with a home run, four doubles, seven RBI, seven runs scored and two stolen bases. Turner is always a must-start fantasy asset when he's in the Dodgers lineup.

Wed May 18 202209:43Trea Turner Tallies Five RBI Across Doubleheader

He went 3-for-8 with a home run, five RBI and two runs scored across the two-game set. The 28-year-old has now recorded at least one hit in 10 straight games. He's tallied four doubles, two stolen bases and seven runs over the 10-game stretch. Over 36 games on the season, he has a .281 batting average. The only major disappointment so far has been his power output as he has only two home runs and he's slugging just. 403.

Tue May 10 202209:07Trea Turner Slashing .179/.233/.214 In May
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner is off to a slow start offensively in the month of May. Through seven games, he's gone just 5-for-28 at the plate, slashing .179/.233/.214. He has just one extra-base hit (a double) and he has yet to attempt a stolen base. It's been an underwhelming start to the year overall for Turner as he's slugging just .346 with only one home run. However, fantasy managers should be confident that better power numbers lie ahead. He currently has a minuscule 4.0% HR/FB rate. He's making good contact with a 46.3% hard-hit rate and a 90.2 mph average exit velocity, but his average launch angle is just 4.1 degrees. We should see the 28-year-old start racking up homers once he starts getting under the ball more consistently.

Tue May 3 202208:33Trea Turner Hitless Over His Last Three Games
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner had a rough time at the plate during the team's three-game series against the Detroit Tigers this past weekend. Over the three-game stretch, he went 0-for-9 with two walks and a strikeout. He did, however, drive in two runs. He stole his fourth base of the year during the series as well. Through 21 games this season, Turner is slashing .263/.315/.375. He's hit just one home run so far, but he's on a good RBI pace with 18 on the year. Turner currently has an average launch angle of just 2.6 degrees, down from 11.4 degrees last year. Once he starts lifting the ball again, we should see the home runs start to accumulate.

Mon Apr 25 202209:15Trea Turner Drives In Three Over The Weekend
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner helped the team capture two out of three games against the San Diego Padres this weekend. He recorded exactly one hit in each game to go along with a total of three RBI and two runs scored. Turner has a decent .279 batting average over 15 games this year and he's racked up three stolen bases. However, he hasn't been hitting for much power yet as he's slugging just .393 with one home run. Additionally, he's striking out more than we're used to seeing with a 24.6% strikeout rate, up from 17% last year. The 28-year-old likely just needs to get more settled at the plate. Expect for improved plate discipline and better power numbers to come soon.

Sun Apr 17 202210:15Trea Turner Thriving At The Plate
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner has found great success at the plate this season. He has logged a base hit in all eight of the Dodgers' games this season, going 12-for-34 with seven RBI during that span. The 28-year-old has been especially dominant during the team's current series against the Reds. Against Cincinnati, Turner is 7-for-13 with a triple, home run, and four RBI. He has posted a 72nd-percentile xBA, 98th percentile sprint speed, and done a good job spraying the ball to the opposite field. He is the No. 1 player in fantasy baseball right now and there's no indication that he'll slow down anytime soon.

Tue Apr 5 202223:42Dodgers Haven't Offered Trea Turner An Extension
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner said that there has been nothing new in contract-extension talks between him and the team. Turner is scheduled to become a free agent after the 2022 season, but he said at the start of spring that he'd be open to signing a long-term contract to remain in LA. The 28-year-old won the National League batting title last year with a .328 average, and if he reaches the open market next winter, he could be one of the most coveted players in free agency. Turner also set career-highs in home runs (28) and RBI (77) while finishing fifth in the National League MVP voting. He has hit .303 and led the majors twice in hits in his seven-year career, and he has 203 career steals as an elite fantasy asset. With or without an extension, Turner is RotoBaller's top-ranked player in fantasy.

Wed Mar 23 202210:06Trea Turner Settles With Dodgers
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner avoided salary arbitration on Tuesday by agreeing to a one-year, $21 million deal. Turner was acquired from the Washington Nationals last year and played second base upon his arrival to LA. But now that Corey Seager is with the Texas Rangers, Turner will be the Dodgers everyday shortstop. With Fernando Tatis Jr. out for three months with a fractured wrist, Turner has become the obvious choice at No. 1 overall in fantasy drafts. An All-Star in 2021, the 28-year-old hit .328/.375/.536 with a .911 OPS, 28 home runs, 77 RBI, 107 runs scored and a league-high stolen bases in 646 plate appearances with the Nationals and Dodgers.

Sun Feb 20 202213:02Trea Turner A Priority Extension Candidate For Dodgers?
The Los Angeles Dodgers will make it a priority to sign shortstop Trea Turner to a contract extension, in the opinion of The Athletic's Fabian Ardaya. Turner is under contract for the 2022 season, but after that he'll become a free agent. The 28-year-old led all position players in Wins Above Replacement (6.9) last year and won his first batting title by hitting .328. Turner was also two home runs shy of a 30-30 season. With Corey Seager now playing for the Texas Rangers, Ardaya thinks it's even more imperative that the Dodgers lock Turner up for the long term. Turner is going as high as pick No. 1 in fantasy drafts this year due to his consistency in all five traditional categories, and adding second base eligibility only helps his cause.

Turner is scoring runs at a much higher rate with the Dodgers as he has 27 runs over 40 games, compared to 66 runs over 96 games with the Nationals, but he may still be getting adjusted to his new surroundings a bit.
