Turner went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and two walks in Sunday's 14-4 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Turner slammed a two-run homer in the first-inning off Carlos Carrasco. In addition he singled and walked twice to contribute to the Dodgers' 14 runs. He is batting .222 with a pair of long balls in the month of August. The 36-year-old is slashing .290/.379/.497 with 21 home runs, 68 RBI and 63 runs scored in 446 plate appearances.

Turner (groin) will start at third base and bat third Sunday against the Mets, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

As manager Dave Roberts hinted would be the case, Turner checks back into the starting nine for the series after a left groin injury kept him on the bench for the past five contests. Chris Taylor had been serving as Turner's primary replacement at the hot corner, but he'll shift to left field Sunday while AJ Pollock gets the night off.

Manager Dave Roberts said Turner (groin) will be available to pinch hit Saturday and should be in Sunday's lineup, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers' skipper added that they'll pinch run for Turner if he reaches base Saturday. This will be the third baseman's fifth consecutive game out of the lineup, but it certainly seems like he'll be starting the series finale Sunday.

Turner (groin) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Dave Roberts suggested Friday that Turner would be available to pinch hit in Saturday's contest, but it's unclear if that's the case. The Dodgers must expect the 36-year-old back very soon, as he hasn't started since Sunday and would probably be on the injured list if his absence was likely to last a few more days. Chris Taylor is once again starting at third base.

Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Turner (groin) will likely be available off the bench for Saturday's game against the Mets, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

While Roberts sounded as though Turner would be held out of the lineup for a fifth consecutive game Saturday, his availability off the bench would still be an improvement on his status since he didn't appear in any of the last four contests. The 36-year-old has been dealing with groin discomfort since Sunday but would likely avoid a trip to the injured list if he's ultimately available Saturday.

Turner (groin) is out of the lineup Friday against the Mets, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Dave Roberts previously said the veteran third baseman wouldn't be available for Friday's contest, so this is an expected absence. It's the fourth consecutive game on the bench for Turner since he exited Sunday's contest with groin discomfort. The 36-year-old is expected to be evaluated Saturday, when it will likely be determined whether a trip to the injured list is necessary.

Turner (groin) won't be available for Friday's game against the Mets, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Turner was held out of the lineup for a third consecutive game Thursday as he continues to deal with left groin discomfort, and he hasn't appeared off the bench in any of those contests. While the 36-year-old is still considered day-to-day, he'll be evaluated again Saturday to determine whether he's ready to return after he sits out again Friday.

Turner (groin) will remain on the bench for Thursday's game against the Phillies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Turner hasn't played since Sunday while working through left groin discomfort. Previous reports indicated he wouldn't return before Friday, so his absence Thursday is an expected one. Max Muncy will shift to third base in his absence, with Albert Pujols starting at first.

Turner (groin) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Dave Roberts said a day earlier that Turner isn't likely to play until Friday's series opener in New York versus the Mets, so his absence from the starting nine for the second straight day comes as little surprise. Chris Taylor will once again fill in for Turner at third base while batting fifth for the Dodgers.

Manager Dave Roberts doesn't expect Turner (groin) to play before Friday's series opener in New York, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Dodgers' skipper did say Turner is feeling better than he has since leaving Sunday's game, though. More details about the third baseman's status and return to the lineup should become clear as the week progresses.
