Turner was in a position to keep principally wholesome in 2021 and attain his highest plate look complete since 2016. In consequence he was in a position to present fantasy managers with helpful energy and batting common whereas chipping in a number of steals. All the pieces was consistent with earlier seasons in addition to his batting common being dragged down by a 10-year low .292 BABIP. He’s slowing down as seen by his lowest time-to-first velocity and near-low dash velocity. Whereas he did not miss a lot time in 2021, Turner was hitting .304/.391/.512 earlier than knee (July) and groin (August) accidents slowed him down. After getting back from the primary harm, he hit .237/.314/.408 over the remainder of the season. When Turner is wholesome, he gives a few of the finest energy and common numbers within the league. The issue is that he is not often 100% wholesome.
His choice to have a good time together with his teammates put up optimistic COVID take a look at overshadowed the accomplishment for a lot of, however Turner lastly received his championship with Los Angeles. He’d been a giant a part of the Dodgers’ NL dominance earlier than that, anchoring the lineup with six straight seasons with well-above-average batting strains. Turner confirmed few indicators of slowing down in 2020, together with his xBA, xSLG and xwOBA all rating within the high 10% of the league. His strikeout fee was 14.9%, a close to match for his 14.6% profession mark. Missed time is a part of the deal; Turner has appeared in additional than 135 video games solely as soon as in his profession, and that was again in 2016. Now 36, Turner shouldn’t be anticipated to play each single day even when he is wholesome, as he is targeted on the last word objective of hoisting the World Sequence trophy on the finish of the 12 months. Turner stays an amazing hitter, however with no velocity and restricted counting-stat upside.
Final season was a story of two halves for Turner. The third baseman didn’t hit a house run till his twenty ninth recreation of the season and reached the break with a modest 10 spherical trippers, although he sat with a stable .294 common and .375 on-base proportion. Turner then turned on the ability within the second half, slugging 17 lengthy balls and posting an 11.2 AB/HR — tenth finest within the majors amongst gamers with 150 or extra plate appearances — regardless of lacking most of September with ankle and again accidents. Turner has been hampered by numerous accidents over the previous three seasons, however he has confirmed his hitting prowess when wholesome, ending twelfth amongst certified gamers with a .388 wOBA throughout that three-year span. He turned 35 in November and his harm historical past is a priority, however Turner’s pattern measurement of success is massive sufficient to encourage confidence in one other season of stable manufacturing on the sizzling nook in 2020.
Turner has usually been nicked up the previous two seasons, however the 34-year-old has proven little proof of decline when he is been on the sector. Turner’s plate method stays distinctive, as he is ranked within the high 10 in each BB/Ok and call fee amongst all hitters with no less than 400 plate appearances since 2017. Though a wrist concern was the foremost offender for his low video games complete in 2018, Turner’s energy did not undergo consequently. He posted a career-best 45% hard-hit fee final season and completed fifteenth amongst all certified hitters in common flyball distance, per Statcast. Whereas the slew of accidents he is endured in recent times might finally take their toll, Turner no less than enters 2019 together with his well being intact. The same old caveats apply in offsetting a participant of his ilk with the suitable quantity of security, but when Turner can merely re-emerge because the 130-game participant he was in 2017, he ought to contend for a top-10 end amongst fantasy third basemen.
Forged off by a number of golf equipment earlier in his profession (together with the Mets, when you hadn’t heard), Turner has blossomed into one of many recreation’s premier hitters, posting wRC+ marks over 140 in three of the previous 4 seasons (123 within the different). His .322 batting common ranked fifth amongst certified hitters final season, and he broke the 20-homer threshold for a second straight season regardless of not hitting his first lengthy ball till Apr. 29 and later lacking practically three weeks with a hamstring harm. Turner walked greater than he struck out, ending second behind solely Joey Votto in BB/Ok, whereas sustaining a top-30 hard-hit fee. He boosted his flyball fee to nearly 48 p.c (from 40 p.c), so the pop appears right here to remain together with the stellar common. There’s some harm danger at 33 years previous — Turner has averaged 129 video games performed per season over his final 4 — however there’s nearly no efficiency danger.
Turner picked a good time to register his first full season within the majors, enjoying a career-high 151 video games, stepping to the dish 622 occasions, and blowing away the 439 plate appearances recorded the earlier season. Provided that 2014’s .404 BABIP is an outlier, final season’s .293 landed on the low finish of Turner’s profession vary, regardless of a typical line drive fee and hard-hit proportion. One motive for the depressed BABIP was that he hit extra flyballs than ever however since that resulted in 27 homers, nobody is complaining. Baselining Turner for 2017 is hard since we do not know if he’ll keep that elevated flyball fee. Then there’s the difficulty of well being. Whereas there are numerous examples of gamers dropping the harm susceptible tag, Turner wants to remain on the sector for an additional 150 video games earlier than he is absolved. When wholesome, stable plate abilities render Turner a stable ground; pay for that, not for the 2016 degree of manufacturing.
Leg and knee points restricted Turner to 385 at-bats in 2015, however when within the lineup, he was once more efficient for the membership, batting a stable .294/.370/.491. His 16 dwelling runs bested his earlier profession excessive by 9 lengthy balls and his 60 RBI had been additionally a profession finest. Maybe it is the way in which he performs with all-out effort, however regardless of being a comparatively younger 31, Turner would not look like a man we are able to depend on for 500+ at-bats. He’ll possible proceed to want a day or two off per week, somebody limiting his fantasy worth, however after notching back-to-back stable seasons on the plate, Turner appears to be a man we are able to depend on for stable manufacturing when he is within the lineup. Headed into 2016, the Dodgers seem set to roll with Corey Seager at shortstop, liberating up a possible return to the Opening Day third base job for Turner. Anticipate although to see the membership usher in somebody who can spell him occasionally.
Turner has frolicked in 4 completely different organizations (Reds, Orioles, Mets, and Dodgers) in his profession that dates again to 2006. He hit for common within the minor leagues, however had hit .260/.323/.361 in over 926 plate appearances on the main league degree heading into 2014, with little trace of upside. Naturally, he hit .340/.404/.493 in 322 plate appearances in 2014. When one sees an 80-point bounce in batting common, it is pure to wish to have a look at the BABIP column and there, we discover a .404 BABIP for Turner in 2014. Over the previous six seasons, even with that .404 quantity factored in, Turner has a .322 BABIP. To say the utility infielder is due for some regression is an understatement. He’s in for a Chris Johnson-like regression in 2015 and that’s unlucky for his present fantasy homeowners as a result of he doesn’t do a lot else on the plate. Roster fastidiously.
Turner reprised his function as backup infielder in 2013, seeing no less than 12 video games in any respect 4 infield spots in between injury-related absences. His strikeout and call charges dropped, which does not bode for future success as his gentle rise in batting common was propelled by an inflated BABIP. Turner’s 2011 numbers look like the outlier this level, and he’ll now not play for the Mets after being non-tendered throughout the offseason, however he might nonetheless get an opportunity to earn a utility function with one other membership.
Because of improved well being at third base with David Wright, Turner noticed practically 300 fewer plate appearances in 2012 whereas his stroll fee (4.9%) dipped again nearer to his newer minor league outcomes. Though his .392 slugging proportion was an enchancment, 2011 might be nearly as good because it will get now that he’s 28 years previous and isn’t even assured regular at-bats even when one of many Mets’ common infielders lands on the disabled record. You possibly can in all probability do worse than Turner when $1 choices within the endgame of NL-only leagues, however others will gamble and do a lot better due to his restricted ceiling.
Turner began 2011 at Triple-A Buffalo, however was up by the third week of the 12 months and noticed motion in a shocking 117 video games. He changed David Wright at third whereas Wright was out, incomes Nationwide League Rookie of the Month honors in Might, earlier than seeing most of his motion at second. Turner struggled for a big portion of the final 4 months of the season, however excelled with runners in scoring place. Daniel Murphy ought to open the 12 months because the beginning second baseman, nonetheless, pushing Turner again right into a utility function.
Turner opened 2010 as an Oriole, however was waived and claimed by the Mets in Might. He turned out to be one in all Triple-A Buffalo’s finest gamers with a .333 common, a .906 OPS, 11 dwelling runs and 58 runs in 84 video games. Turner can be within the combine for the second base job in spring coaching, however is more likely to begin the 12 months again within the minors.
Turner does most issues effectively, however no single instrument stands out. He pushed his method to a September callup and he might win a utility infielder function out of camp. If there’s an harm within the center infield he may very well be primed for some enjoying time, however he would not warrant a lot fantasy reward.
