Jun 29 2025Turang went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Rockies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The second baseman delivered a standout performance in Saturday's win, driving in the game's first run with an RBI single in the first inning and later tacking on an RBI double in the fifth inning -- both off Antonio Senzatela. Turang is putting together a strong third MLB season, highlighted by a scorching 15-game stretch during which he's slashing .400/.413/.533 with six extra-base hits and 10 RBI.
Jun 23 2025Turang went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in Sunday's 9-8 win over the Twins. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang launched a 412-foot blast off David Festa in the fifth inning, his fifth of the year, that would prove to be a difference maker in Milwaukee's eventual one-run victory. Turang's now hit safely in seven straight games, going 11-for-29 (.379) with a .992 OPS in that span. Overall, he's slashing .274/.352/.367 with 50 runs scored, 30 RBI and 16 stolen bases through 322 plate appearances this season.
Jun 17 2025Turang went 2-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang swiped his 16th base of the year, and the multi-hit game was his third in his past five outings as he tries to heat up. The speedy middle infielder hasn't left the yard since May 20, as it's been an extended cold spell at the plate overall for about a month now. Over his last 106 plate appearances (25 games), Turang is slashing a weak .220/.321/.275 with five doubles, seven RBI, 11 runs scored and just three thefts.
Jun 6 2025Turang went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Friday's 2-0 loss to the Padres. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The steal was Turang's 15th of the year, and he's now posted at least one hit in six of his last seven games. Over his last 11 outings, the speedy second baseman is batting .306 (11-for-36) with four doubles, four RBI, eight runs scored and two stolen bases. Turang ranks seventh in the National League in stolen bases thus far, but he has just one home run since April 9 and just four on the season.
May 26 2025Turang is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Brewers are stacking their lineup with eight right-handed bats along with the switch-hitting Isaac Collins to counter Boston lefty Garrett Crochet. Turang, who is batting just .195/.295/.273 so far this month, gives way to Andruw Monasterio at second base.
May 17 2025Turang went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Twins. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The second baseman very nearly manufactured a run by himself in the first inning, slapping a single to left field and then swiping second and third base, but the Brewers couldn't bring Turang home and never got another runner that close to scoring again. The 25-year-old is up to 11 steals on the year in 14 attempts while slashing .288/.365/.365 with three homers, 16 RBI and 32 runs in 42 games.
May 7 2025Turang is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Astros. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang is out of the lineup for a second time during the three-game series. Brewers manager Pat Murphy indicated when Turang sat out Monday that the infielder was still regaining strength following an illness last week. It's possible that's still a factor in him not being in Wednesday's lineup, but southpaw Framber Valdez being on the bump for the Astros might be the main reason for the left-handed-hitting Turang's absence. Caleb Durbin is at second base Wednesday while Vinny Capra handles third base.
May 5 2025Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Turang will not be in Monday's lineup against the Astros as he continues to regain strength following an illness, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang played each of the previous four games after sitting out one contest last week because he was under the weather. He's evidently still not feeling quite 100 percent, however, so he'll get a breather for the series opener versus Houston. Turang will be available off the bench Monday and should be back in the lineup Tuesday.
May 1 2025Turang (illness) will start at second base and bat leadoff in Thursday's contest against the White Sox. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang was scratched from the lineup ahead of Wednesday's 6-4 win and was sent back to the team hotel while he battled a stomach bug, but he's ready to roll for Thursday's series finale. The second baseman is slashing .317/.368/.408 with three home runs and eight stolen bases in his first 30 games for the Brewers this season.
Apr 30 2025Turang was scratched from the Brewers' lineup against the White Sox on Wednesday due to an illness. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Isaac Collins will get the start at second base and bat in the leadoff spot while Turang, who has gone 13-for-40 (.325) with three stolen bases, eight runs and five RBI over his last 10 games, will get a day off to recover from the ailment.
Apr 20 2025Turang went 2-for-3 with a walk, three runs scored, an RBI and three stolen bases in Sunday's 14-1 victory over the Athletics. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang singled before stealing both second and third base in the first inning, coming around to score on a throwing error by Shea Langeliers. The second baseman drew a walk and stole second base again in the second inning and scored on a double from Jackson Chourio. Turang later added another single and a sacrifice fly to round out his day. The 25-year-old is now batting .322 with three home runs, 11 RBI, 23 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 22 games in 2025.
Apr 18 2025Turang went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and three runs scored in Friday's 5-3 win over the Athletics. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang bounced back from an 0-for-4 effort Wednesday versus the Tigers, which was just his second hitless effort of the year. The speedy second baseman has swiped three bags over his last five games. He's up to a .313/.349/.438 slash line, five steal,s three home runs, 10 RBI and 20 runs scored over 20 contests as the Brewers' main leadoff hitter.
Apr 16 2025Turang went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Tigers. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang reached in the first and swiped second for his fourth steal of the year. He's now tallied a hit in all but one game so far this season, though he does not have an extra-base hit since he homered April 8. The 25-year-old is slashing .329/.367/.466 with three homers, 10 RBI, 17 runs and a 4:17 BB:K in 79 plate appearances.
Apr 6 2025Turang went 2-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang was able to launch a ground-rule double over the head of Gavin Lux in the bottom of the third inning, later coming around to score on a single from Christian Yelich. The second baseman also added a single and another run scored in the following frame. Turang now owns a 10-game hit streak to open the 2025 campaign, batting .325 with two home runs, six RBI, 10 runs scored and two stolen bases to this point.
Apr 5 2025Turang went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 3-2 win over the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: A number of middle infielders classified as light-hitting have been displaying surprising power early in 2025, a group led by the Dodgers' Tommy Edman (five homers in nine games), but Turang has put himself among that group with some loud contact of his own. The 25-year-old absolutely smoked a Nick Martinez cutter in the fifth inning Friday, depositing it 418 feet away over the right-center-field fence for what proved to be the winning runs. Turang had seven homers in 155 regular-season games last year with an average exit velocity in the 14th percentile, and a hard-hit rate in the ninth percentile. Through his first eight games of 2025 he's already gone yard twice, and while the sample size is very small, he boasts an AEV in the 84th percentile and a hard-hit rate in the 60th percentile.
Apr 3 2025Turang went 1-for-3 with a strikeout in Thursday's 1-0 win over the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: While Turang has started each of Milwaukee's first seven games at second base, he's now hit ninth in the batting order four times so far this season. Each of those four starts in the ninth spot have come against southpaws, however, so fantasy managers shouldn't be alarmed by the lefty-hitting Turang's frequent placement in the bottom of the lineup early on. Across 28 at-bats, Turang is hitting .321 with one home run, four RBI, six runs scored and one stolen base while hitting safely in each of his first seven contests.
Mar 24 2025Turang (shoulder) will play in a minor-league game Monday and is considered a "full go" for the Brewers' season opener Thursday versus the Yankees, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Though they'll be playing the Rockies on Monday in their Cactus League finale, the Brewers sent Turang to the minor-league camp for the day so that he can stockpile competitive at-bats in a more uncontrolled game setting. Turang had missed more than a week of Cactus League action before he returned to the lineup Sunday as a designated hitter, going 2-for-4 with a run scored. It's not clear if Turang will be playing the field at minor-league camp Monday, but the expectation is that he'll be in the lineup at second base Thursday.
Mar 22 2025Turang (shoulder) was able to resume throwing Saturday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang began dealing with shoulder fatigue in mid-March and was unable to throw Monday when he first attempted to return to baseball activity. Given that, Saturday's progress is significant and indicates that Turang should be available come Opening Day.
Mar 18 2025Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Turang (shoulder) will open the season as the club's primary second baseman, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Milwaukee was seriously considering shifting Turang to shortstop this season, but the idea was scuttled once the infielder developed some shoulder soreness. The shoulder issue is not expected to affect his availability for Opening Day. Turang is the reigning Platinum Glove winner in the National League for his defensive work at second base.
Mar 17 2025Turang (shoulder) struggled during his throwing session Monday and will be shut down for 3-to-5 days, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: There still isn't much long-term concern by the club, as McCalvy notes that Turang should still play on Opening Day, but he's unlikely to be named the starting shortstop at this point. This points toward Joey Ortiz opening the regular season at shortstop and Turang manning second base, at least until he's able to shake his shoulder issue.
Mar 15 2025Manager Pat Murphy told reporters Saturday that his decision to take Turang (shoulder) out of the lineup against the Athletics was done as a precaution, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Medical staff had cleared Turang to play Saturday, but Murphy wanted to give the 25-year-old some additional time to recover from right shoulder fatigue. It remains to be seen whether Turang will play in Sunday's spring game against Cleveland, but he doesn't appear to be in serious jeopardy of missing Opening Day.
Feb 28 2025Turang went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's exhibition game. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang has just one base knock through four exhibition appearances, but more importantly, he hit leadoff or second in all four. When the regular season gets underway, chances are Turang -- who stole 50 bases and won his first Gold Glove last season -- will regularly occupy one of those spots against right-handers and hit lower in the order against southpaws.
Sep 28 2024Turang isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Brewers will match up against left-hander Jose Quintana, and the lefty-hitting Turang will take a seat for the team's penultimate regular-season game. Andruw Monasterio will replace him at second base and bat ninth.
Sep 27 2024Turang went 3-for-4 with three steals, a double and three runs scored in Friday's 8-4 victory over the Mets. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Milwaukee second baseman notched his second three-steal game of the season, with the other also coming against the Mets back on March 30. Turang becomes the fifth Brewer all-time to reach the 50-steal mark and first since Jonathan Villar in 2016. After hitting .277 across 92 games in the first half, Turang has struggled since the All-Star break, batting just .219 (48-for-219) over 61 games. This performance also marked his first multi-hit showing in his last 10 games. Overall, Turang is now batting .254 with 24 doubles, seven homers, 72 runs scored and 57 RBI while going 50-for-56 in steals.
Sep 18 2024Turang went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Phillies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang has stolen four bases over his last five games to give him 45 thefts on the year. That's good for third in the majors behind only Shohei Ohtani (49) and Elly De La Cruz (64). Turang is batting .293 (17-for-58) in September, an improvement on his .258 average for the year. His place atop the order has helped him be moderately productive despite a .677 OPS, as he's added 69 runs scored, 54 RBI, seven home runs, 23 doubles and four triples over 146 contests.
Sep 16 2024Turang went 3-for-4 with two walks, three runs scored and a steal in Sunday's loss to the Diamondbacks. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang posted his fourth game this month with multiple hits and just his fifth game of the season with multiple walks. He's now reached base eight times over the last two games and has swiped a bag in each game as well. Turang continues to lead off against righties despite just a .217 average and .279 OBP since July 1. For the year, he's hitting .259/.322/.360 with 34 extra-base hits, 53 RBI, 69 runs, 43 steals and a 47:99 BB:K in 571 plate appearances.
Sep 14 2024Turang went 2-for-5 with a double, a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 15-8 win over the Diamondbacks. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang is up to 42 steals this year, though he's recorded a modest three thefts while going 12-for-44 (.273) over 12 games in September. The second baseman has had limited opportunities at leadoff lately, with Jackson Chourio more frequently in that spot. Overall, Turang has a .255/.316/.357 slash line with seven home runs, 53 RBI and 66 runs scored across 142 contests.
Sep 8 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang doesn't operate in a strict platoon at second base, but he'll sit Sunday against Colorado southpaw Kyle Freeland. Andruw Monasterio will start at the keystone and bat ninth in the series finale.
Sep 4 2024Turang went 3-for-5 with two doubles and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Cardinals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang got to second base three times in the contest and reached third base twice, but Milwaukee was unable to bring him home. It was nonetheless a strong performance by the second baseman, who collected multiple extra-base hits in a game for just the fourth time this season. Turang's swipe of third base in the sixth inning was his 41st theft of the campaign, third-most in the majors.
Aug 31 2024Turang went 1-for-4 with a double, two walks, two stolen bases, a run scored and an RBI in a 14-0 win over the Reds in the second game of Friday's doubleheader. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang had gone 10 games without a steal prior to Friday, though he's now swiped 39 bags on the season, third most in the majors behind Elly De La Cruz and Shohei Ohtani. Overall, Turang's slashing .255/.321/.359 on the season with seven homers, 61 runs scored and 51 RBI through 516 plate appearances.
Aug 30 2024Turang is absent from the lineup for the first game of Friday's doubleheader in Cincinnati. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang will surely be back in there for the nightcap, but he'll sit out the afternoon tilt. Andruw Monasterio will play second base and bat ninth for the Brewers in the first game.
Aug 28 2024Turang isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: With left-hander Kyle Harrison slated to start on the bump for San Francisco, the lefty-hitting Turang will step out of the starting nine Wednesday. Andruw Monasterio will man the keystone instead and bat seventh.
Aug 23 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang will dodge a same-hand matchup with southpaw JP Sears on Friday, giving way to Andruw Monasterio at second base. In August, Turang is 13-for-61 (.213) with a homer, two triples, a double and five stolen bases.
Aug 15 2024Turang went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run and two stolen bases in a 6-4 win over the Dodgers on Thursday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang began the bottom of the first inning with a double and subsequently crossed the plate on Jackson Chourio's two-run homer. That wasn't the end of Turang's production, as he reached base two more times and stole a base in each instance. The second baseman began August in a 5-for-35 funk, but he's gone 3-for-5 with two walks and three thefts over his past two contests. His two swipes Thursday moved him back into second place in the majors with 36 steals on the campaign.
Aug 11 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The lefty-hitting Turang will retreat to the bench for the series finale while southpaw Nick Lodolo takes the hill for Cincinnati. Jackson Chourio will assume leadoff duties Sunday, while Andruw Monasterio takes Turang's usual spot in the field at second base.
Aug 9 2024Turang went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Friday's 8-3 win versus the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Milwaukee second baseman cracked his seventh homer of the season in second inning off Carson Spiers -- a 383-foot, two-run blast to left center. This marks Turang's first homer since hitting a grand slam against the Cubs on June 30. Perhaps this long ball will invigorate the slumping 24-year-old, as he entered this contest hitting .164 (10-for-61) with no extra-base hits since the All-Star break.
Aug 7 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The lefty-hitting Turang will retreat to the bench for the second time in three games while Atlanta sends a lefty (Chris Sale) to the bump. Andruw Monasterio will replace Turang at second base.
Aug 4 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The lefty-hitting Turang started in Saturday's 6-4 loss while southpaw DJ Herz took the hill for the Nationals, but Turang will find himself on the bench for the series finale in a matchup against Washington southpaw Mitchell Parker. Andruw Monasterio will step in for Turang at second base.
Jul 31 2024Turang is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Atlanta is sending left-hander Chris Sale to the hill, so the lefty-hitting Turang will begin the contest on the bench. Andruw Monasterio will occupy second base for the Brewers.
Jul 24 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The lefty-hitting Turang will hit the bench for the Brewers' second straight matchup with a left-hander, as he previously sat against Nationals southpaw Mitchell Parker on July 13. Andruw Monasterio will get the nod at the keystone and could continue to occupy the short side of a platoon with Turang moving forward.
Jul 23 2024Turang went 1-for-2 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Offense was at a premium Tuesday, and Turang's RBI single in the eighth inning was the lone run of the game. The second baseman has gone just 2-for-18 with four RBI over four contests since the All-Star break. He's gone 14 games without a multi-hit effort, but he's enough of a speed threat to stay atop the order even when he's not hitting at his best. For the year, Turang has 31 steals, six home runs, 42 RBI, 47 runs scored and a .268/.332/.376 slash line over 97 contests.
Jul 14 2024Turang went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 9-3 win over the Nationals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang has struggled at the plate in July, going 9-for-48 (.188) over his first 13 games this month. That's also put a damper on his best attribute, his speed, as he's been able to log just two steals on three attempts in that span. Turang has 30 thefts on 35 attempts this year -- good for second in the majors behind only the Reds' Elly De La Cruz -- while adding six home runs, 38 RBI, 45 runs scored and a .277/.341/.390 slash line through 93 contests.
Jun 30 2024Turang went 2-for-5 with a grand slam in Sunday's win against the Cubs. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang took Kyle Hendricks deep with the bases loaded to put the finishing touches on a seven-run fourth inning for the Brewers. The 24-year-old has now hit two grand slams over the past eight days, giving him a career-best 37 RBI on the campaign. The middle infielder has enjoyed an exceptional breakout season, batting .292 with six home runs, 37 RBI, 40 runs scored and 28 stolen bases in 80 games played.
Jun 29 2024Turang went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang's speed was on display in the defeat -- he plated the Brewers' first run with an RBI bunt single in the third inning and followed the hit with a steal of second base. The swipe was his 28th of the season, second-most in the majors. Fantasy managers should have been aware of Turang's speed coming into the campaign after he swiped 26 bags in 137 games last year, but the second baseman's other offensive stats have been a pleasant surprise. He's slashing .290/.354/.406 with five homers, 33 RBI and 39 runs through 317 plate appearances.
Jun 23 2024Turang went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and a walk in Saturday's loss to the Padres. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang reached base four times in the contest, topping things off with a ninth-inning grand slam to bring Milwaukee back within two runs of the Padres. The grand slam was the second of his career, and he's now collected at least one RBI in three consecutive games. Turang has also recorded multiple hits in three straight and is now batting .296 on the campaign with five homers, 31 RBI and 26 stolen bases. Perhaps the only downside is that he's been caught stealing in each of his last three attempts, including twice Saturday.
Jun 18 2024Turang went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a loss to the Angels. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang plated the final run of the contest with his 419-foot solo shot in the fifth inning. The second-year infielder has gone deep four times through 68 games this season after hitting six homers in 137 contests last year. Turang's skill set is more centered on speed than power, so anything fantasy managers get in the homer department is a nice bonus. The speedster has made a big impact on the rosters of fantasy managers who had the foresight to pick him up late in fantasy drafts or on the waiver wire, as he's slashing .291/.359/.406 on the season with 25 RBI, 35 runs and 26 stolen bases in 27 attempts.
Jun 8 2024Turang went 2-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs in Saturday's win over the Tigers. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Brewers' primary leadoff man started off the game with a walk, then moved to second and scored on a single by Christian Yelich. Turang would reach on hits in his next two at-bats and scored again in the third, giving him his seventh game with at least two runs scored this season. The second baseman also added his 23rd stolen base of the season, second to only Elly De La Cruz in MLB. Turang's batting average sits at .307 for the year.
Jun 4 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang will dodge a matchup with southpaw Cristopher Sanchez on Tuesday, joining fellow lefties Jake Bauers and Sal Frelick on the bench. Andruw Monasterio will play second and bat ninth.
May 31 2024Turang went 3-for-5 with one RBI and two runs scored in Friday's win against the White Sox. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang collected his fourth three-hit night of the season, batting in his customary leadoff spot against right-handed starters with Erick Fedde on the mound. The Brewers second baseman produced another solid month in May, hitting .284 (25-for-88) with one homer, five steals, nine RBI and nine runs scored. Overall, Turang is slashing .298/.361/.414 in 205 plate appearances with three homers, 19 stolen bases, 21 RBI and 24 runs scored.
May 25 2024Turang went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base Saturday in Boston. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang's third home run of the season came in the eighth inning off reliever Zack Kelly. He had drew a walk and notched his 19th stolen base of the season earlier in the contest. After going 26-for-30 in stolen base attempts as a rookie, Turang is now a perfect 19-for-19 in 2024. Only Elly De La Cruz (with 31) has more.
May 22 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The lefty-hitting Turang finds himself on the bench for the third game in a row while the Marlins bring another southpaw (Jesus Luzardo) to the hill. Andruw Monasterio will fill in at second base for Turang.
May 21 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang isn't starting for a second straight game, with southpaw Trevor Rogers on the bump for Tuesday's contest. Instead, Andruw Monasterio will lead off and play second base.
May 20 2024Turang is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Miami. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Marlins are rolling with southpaw Ryan Weathers, so the left-handed hitting Turang will take a seat. Andruw Monasterio will occupy second base for the Brewers.
May 19 2024Turang went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI, a run scored and a steal in Sunday's loss to Houston. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang doubled, swiped third base and scored in the first inning. He later knocked a two-run single in the seventh. He's been swinging a hot bat all season and is officially entering breakout territory. After registering a brutal .585 OPS through 448 plate appearances in 2023, Turang owns a .314/.369/.431 slash line through 43 games this season. He's perfect in 18 stolen base attempts and has produced 15 multi-hit games.
May 15 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Brewers are facing left-hander Martin Perez in a day game after a night game, so manager Pat Murphy likely viewed Wednesday's contest as an opportune time to give the lefty-hitting Turang a breather. Turang had batted out of the leadoff spot in each of the last seven games, going 8-for-27 (.296 average) with two stolen bases, three RBI and three runs.
May 8 2024Turang went 3-for-4 with three doubles, an RBI and a run scored during Wednesday's 6-4 loss to Kansas City. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang reached safely four times Wednesday, tagging Brady Singer, Nick Anderson and Tyler Duffey for doubles during the contest while also logging a walk. Turang has been one of the best second basemen in baseball this season, ranking third at the position with a .316 batting average while owning a .826 OPS and a 13.7 percent K Rate.
May 6 2024Turang is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang -- who is tied for second in the majors with 14 stolen bases -- will hit the bench for just the third time all season in what looks to be a maintenance day. Joey Ortiz will fill in for Turang at the keystone and will bat second.
May 1 2024Turang went 2-for-3 with three RBI, a run scored, a walk and stole a base during Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Rays. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang's RBI single in the second inning drove in Jackson Chourio to give Milwaukee a 2-0 lead, and his seventh-inning double scored another two runs, pushing the score to 8-2. The 24-year-old second baseman continues to look like a reformed hitter, batting .312 through 93 at-bats this season -- a drastic improvement from his .218 average last year -- and his 14 stolen bases rank second in the majors.
Apr 27 2024Turang isn't in the Brewers' lineup Saturday against the Yankees. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang will sit down to begin the game as left-hander Carlos Rodon prepares to start on the mound for New York. Joey Ortiz will slide over to second base as a result, allowing Owen Miller to pick up a start at the hot corner and bat seventh.
Apr 23 2024Turang went 1-for-2 with a walk and two stolen bases in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Pirates. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Turang is now 12-for-12 in stolen base attempts this year, tying Elly De La Cruz for the league lead. After a disappointing rookie campaign, the 24-year-old Turang has gotten off to an excellent start this season, batting .319 with an .847 OPS, two homers, 12 runs scored and nine RBI through 21 games.
