Turner went 3-for-5 with a walk, a home run, a stolen base, four runs scored and two RBI in Friday's 17-7 rout of the Phillies.

Turner went 4-for-4 with a double, a homer and two runs scored Tuesday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Turner's monster night Tuesday was a much-needed sign of life, as the speedy shortstop was hitting just .200 over his first 14 games in June. The strong effort raised his batting average by 11 points to a .267 mark to go along with his eight homers, 26 RBI and 20 stolen bases on the year.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's loss to the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
Turner gave the Nationals a 2-1 lead in the third inning following a 2-run home run, but they'd ultimately lose 2-4.

Turner went 1-for-4 in Friday's loss to the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
The Nats only managed two hits all night off Mike Foltynewicz, but Turner still managed to extend his hitting streak to 13 games. The shortstop hasn't exactly been on fire over that stretch, however, collecting multiple hits only three times and posting a .281/.305/.404 slash line with one homer, seven RBI, six runs and three steals.

Turner went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases and two runs scored Thursday against the Braves.
EDGE Analysis
Turner stole a base each of the times he made it aboard on Thursday, raising his total to 16 on the season. After going 12-for-12 in stolen base attempts in April, Turner attempted only five stolen bases in the month of May. That's a troubling sign for a player that many were counting on for 50 stolen bases this season, though on the positive side of things he has been successful on 16 of his 17 attempts so he should certainly maintain a green light.

Turner went 2-for-5 with two doubles, a run scored and two RBI in Monday's win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
While he didn't join in the Nats' homer barrage Monday, Turner continues to sting the ball, hitting .303/.378/.667 over his last eight games with three doubles and three home runs. The 24-year-old is well on pace for career highs in all four volume roto categories this year if he can avoid the injury bug.

Turner went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Sunday against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
Turner was the lone source of offense for the Nationals on Sunday, with his sixth home run of the season briefly giving the team a one run lead. It also continued his improved power production, as he has now hit three home runs in his past seven games. However, his stolen base production has declined drastically since the calendar flipped to May, as he is just 1-for-2 on the basepaths this month after swiping 12 bases in April.

Turner went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run, a stolen base and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks,
EDGE Analysis
After a slow start in the power department, Turner's now launched three homers in the last week to give him five on the year. Hitting at the top of the Nats' order is limiting his RBI opportunities -- all three of those recent home runs were solo shots -- but otherwise the 24-year-old is supplying fantasy value across the board, and Turner's career-high 14.8 percent walk rate is giving him an additional boost in OBP leagues.

Turner went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Monday's win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
The homer was his third of the season, and second in five days. Turner now carries a .365/.459/.577 slash line over his last 14 games with nine RBI, 12 runs and four steals, and hitting at the top of a dangerous Nats lineup should allow him to continue racking up fantasy production.
