According to Ken Gurnick of MLB.com, manager Dave Roberts wanted to rest Turner's legs, which explains why the third baseman is out of the lineup against left-hander Jason Vargas. Since the start of May (22 games), Turner is slashing an impressive .341/.409/.585 with five homers, 15 RBI, a stolen base and a 6:7 BB:K.
