Brice Turang Stats

Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Brice Turang has been recalled from Triple-A Nashville on Thursday. Luis Urias was optioned in a corresponding move so there's a good chance that Turang will be in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the New York Mets. Milwaukee hasn't released their lineup at the time of this posting. Turang struggled in his first taste of the big leagues at the beginning of the season, slashing .205/.254/.307 with three home runs, 14 RBI, and nine stolen bases over 166 at-bats. He posted a .927 OPS with three home runs and six doubles over 57 at-bats (15 games) in his most recent stint in Triple-A, however. He offers an intriguing mix of pop and speed and is worth consideration in NL-only leagues for now.

The Milwaukee Brewers optioned infielder Brice Turang to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday and reinstated shortstop Willy Adames (concussion) from the seven-day concussion list in a corresponding move. The Brewers want their rookie shortstop to get some more seasoning on the farm after he struggled to the tune of a .205 average (34-for-166) with four doubles, two triples, three home runs, 14 RBI, nine stolen bases and 48 strikeouts in his first 57 major-league games. Adames will return to the regular starting duties at the 6 in Milwaukee. The 23-year-old left-handed-hitting Turang should eventually rejoin the Brew Crew at the big-league level this year, but for now he can be dropped in deep-mixed fantasy leagues.

Milwaukee Brewers rookie shortstop Brice Turang went 2-for-4 with a triple, an RBI, a stolen base, a walk and two strikeouts in the team's 4-3 extra-innings win over the visiting Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday night. It was nice to see some signs of life from Turang, as he entered Tuesday's contest on a seven-game hitless stretch in 19 at-bats with four strikeouts. The 23-year-old shortstop has mostly looked overmatched at the plate in his first year in the big leagues, and he's now hitting just .205 (34-for-166) with four doubles, two triples, three home runs, 14 RBI, nine stolen bases and 16 runs scored in 57 games played. Hopefully his performance on Tuesday will get him going, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much.
