Trea Turner Fantasy

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Luis Garcia is shifting over to cover shortstop while Josh Harrison is playing second base and batting second in the game. Turner has had a solid month of September, slashing .284/.347/.489 with three home runs, 15 RBI, 15 runs and nine stolen bases. Turner was originally part of the team's starting lineup for Wednesday's game but was later scratched for an undisclosed reason. Stay tuned to see if he's dealing with anything that could keep him out going forward.

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner was 2-for-4 during Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Tampa Bay Rays. The 27-year-old is batting .241 with no homers and four RBI over his last seven games. It is a sudden cold streak for Turner, but some regression had to be expected. He still owns a .344/.401/.594 slash line on the season to go along with nine homers, 28 RBI, and nine stolen bases. Expect him to get things back on track during the final few weeks of the 2020 season.

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner is off to a great start in September. He's recorded hits in six straight games, including two home runs. On the year, Turner is slashing .362/.413/.626 with nine home runs, five stolen bases and 34 runs. He's certainly returning significant value in rotisserie and head-to-head categories leagues for anyone who invested a high price to draft him. He's made some great strides across the board this year. His strikeout rate is down from 19.7% last year to 14.5% this year and his barrel rate is up from 6.8% last year to 8% this year. His stolen bases are significantly lower than you'd like to see, but don't rule out a strong finish on the base paths for the Nationals star.
