Wed Nov 23 202200:18Trea Turner "Likely" Phillies' Top SS Target
Free agent shortstop Trea Turner is "likely" the Philadelphia Phillies' top target among all available players at the position, per MLB.com's Mark Feinsand. Turner would provide defensive stability to a generally weak overall defense while adding to an already-strong lineup. This move would also allow for a reunion between Turner and Bryce Harper, who were former teammates with the Washington Nationals. The 29-year-old will remain a top fantasy option regardless of where he signs, as he slashed .298/.343/.466 with 21 home runs, 100 RBI, 101 runs scores, and 27 stolen bases with the Dodgers in 2022.

Sat Oct 15 202211:32X-Rays Negative On Trea Turner's Finger
X-rays came back negative on Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner's finger on Friday night, and he said he just jammed his finger while diving back into first base on a pickoff attempt late in the Game 3 loss to the San Diego Padres in the National League Division Series. In the first three games of the series, Turner has gone 4-for-13 with two home runs, a double, two RBI, three runs scored and four strikeouts at the plate. But he's mostly been noticed for his mishaps on defense, recording two errors already at shortstop with the Dodgers facing elimination in Game 4 on Saturday. Hopefully, his jammed finger won't negatively impact his ability to swing the lumber for the rest of the series.

Tue Sep 20 202220:04Trea Turner Back In Game 2 Lineup
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner (back) is back at shortstop and is hitting second in the batting order for Game 2 of the team's doubleheader against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. Turner was hit in the back on a throw in Game 1 as a precaution, but it obviously wasn't a serious issue at all since he's back in there for the nightcap. The 29-year-old had a hit in three at-bats before leaving Game 1 to extend his hitting streak to 16 games. The fact that he's back in the Game 2 lineup is great news for fantasy managers that had him locked into their lineups after Game 1. Turner continues to be one of the best all-around players in baseball, both in real life and in fantasy.

Tue Sep 20 202218:01Trea Turner Exits Game 1 Early Tuesday
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner (back) left the first game of a doubleheader early against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday after he was hit in the back by a throw in the fifth inning. With the Dodgers having already clinched the National League West, it's highly unlikely that Turner will play in the nightcap against Arizona. Before departing, he had gone 1-for-3 at the plate. The 29-year-old was replaced at the 6 by Hanser Alberto. The 29-year-old is one of the most valuable players in fantasy and real life, so the Dodgers will be hoping it's just a minor injury. Turner came into the day slashing .304/.347/.482 with an .830 OPS, 20 home runs, 97 RBI, 93 runs scored and 25 stolen bases in a league-high 593 at-bats.

Fri Sep 2 202218:36Trea Turner Sitting For First Time This Season
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the San Diego Padres, marking the first time this season that Turner won't start for the Dodgers. It is a bit surprising that they'd sit the star shortstop against a division rival, but the Dodgers have had the top seed locked up for a while now, and might just be giving their regulars some time off. Turner has been tremendous at the dish again this season, slashing.306/.351/.478 with 82 runs, 86 RBI, 18 homers, and 22 steals. He is the best five-category contributor in fantasy baseball. Expect Turner to return to the lineup Saturday, barring any injury news.

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner recorded a walk on Wednesday. It was his first since August 1, bringing his 13-game streak without a free pass to an end. He went 0-for-3 with a strikeout in the contest. Turner has reached base in 11 of his last 12 games and is now 15-for-51 (.294) during that span. Even as his offensive numbers take a small dip, he continues to boast massive talent and upside, making him one of the most appealing players to roster in fantasy baseball.

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
Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Trea Turner helped lead the team to a pair of victories in the team's doubleheader against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. 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.
