Turner went 2-for-3 with two homers, three RBI and three runs scored in Monday's victory over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old shortstop took Lucas Giolito deep twice Monday, sending a first-inning changeup out to left center for a solo shot and later adding a two-run homer to give Philadelphia a 5-3 lead in the fifth. Turner's hitting streak now spans nine games, during which he has batted .342 (13-for-38) with five home runs, two doubles, 10 RBI, 11 runs, one steal, and a gaudy 1.155 OPS. Turner's season-long batting average has risen from .248 to .255 in that same timeframe, still a far cry from his .295 career mark.

Turner has now hit safely in five straight games and has three long balls in that span. Over his last 18 contests, the 30-year-old Turner has gone 25-for-73 (.342) with a 1.015 OPS, boosting his slash line to .250/.303/.405 on the season with 15 homers, 72 runs scored, 49 RBI and 22 stolen bases across 558 plate appearances.

Turner went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Saturday's 12-3 win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
The shortstop didn't just go yard twice against the team he made his big-league debut with in 2015, Turner went yard twice in the same inning against the same pitcher, bookending the Phillies' eight-run eruption in the eighth inning with blasts to left field off Cory Abbott. Turner's bat has come alive in August, and over the last 14 games he's slashing .370/.414/.704 with six doubles, four homers, one steal, nine runs and 12 RBI.

Turner went 3-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Saturday's 8-1 loss to the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
The Phillies' offensive malaise Saturday didn't slow down Turner's resurgence. The shortstop has hit safely in nine straight games, collecting multiple hits in five of them and batting .457 (16-for-35) over that stretch with six doubles, two homers, one steal, six runs and 10 RBI. While his numbers on the season remain well below expectations, Turner appears to have flipped the switch and could be poised for a stretch run worthy of a player who signed a $300 million contract over the winter.

Turner went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 6-2 victory over the Nationals.

The 30-year-old shortstop belted a two-run homer off Andres Machado in the sixth inning, giving Philadelphia a 2-1 lead. Turner has now hit safely in seven consecutive contests, batting .370 (10-for-27) with two home runs, eight RBI and a steal during that span.

Turner went 3-for-7 with a walk, two doubles, two runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader split with the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Facing his former club, Turner collected two-baggers in each end of the twin bill, extending his extra-base hit streak to four games. The shortstop has been mired in nearly a season-long slump to kick off the 11-year, $300 million contract he signed with Philadelphia in the offseason, but despite a career-worst .677 OPS he still has 11 homers, 22 steals (without a caught stealing), 40 RBI and 63 runs through 112 games. A big finish to 2023 could re-establish him as a first-round pick at 2024 draft tables.

Turner went 4-for-12 with a home run, two doubles and five RBI during the Phillies' three-game series with the Royals over the weekend.
EDGE Analysis
In what's been a disappointing first season in Philadelphia, Turner might have had his finest moment in a Phillies uniform Saturday. He contributed two extra-base hits in the Phillies' 9-6 win, including a go-ahead three-run home run in the sixth inning that snapped a 21-game stretch without a long ball. Despite Turner's solid weekend, the Phillies aren't yet ready to move him up from the bottom-third of the lineup. He'll start at shortstop and bat seventh in Monday's series opener with the Nationals.

Turner is hitting eighth Thursday against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
He hit seventh in the lineup July 29, and had hit sixth in the lineup the past three games, but this represents a new low for Turner. The big-ticket free agent signee is slashing .238/.303/.369 with five home runs and 14 steals in 52 games since June 1.

Turner will bat sixth and start at shortstop in Tuesday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Turner has now batted between fifth and seventh in the order in four consecutive games while the Phillies have since tried out Nick Castellanos and Alec Bohm in the No. 2 spot the shortstop had occupied for most of the season. Even though Turner has showed modest signs of a turnaround by reaching base five times in the last three games, his on-base percentage is still below .300 for the season and sits at .278 since the All-Star break. Needless to say, Turner has been a major disappointment for fantasy managers who invested a top-three pick into him on draft day after he signed an 11-year, $300 million deal with Philadelphia in December.
