Turner was recalled from Triple-A on Friday, MASN's Mark Zuckerman reports.
EDGE Analysis
It is unclear how long Turner will be up with the big league club, as this was the corresponding move to Ryan Zimmerman being placed on paternity leave. However, Turner should be owned in most formats, as the Nationals can gain an extra year of control even if they kept him up for the rest of the season, factoring in his time on the active roster in 2015. Danny Espinosa sports a .637 OPS, and while he has offered strong defense at shortstop, Turner offers a pretty clear overall upgrade at this point. The 13th overall pick in the 2014 draft, Turner has really impressed at every stop, and that has continued this year at Triple-A. He is slashing .310/.376/.472 with three homers and is a perfect 17-for-17 on stolen-base attempts.
