Trea Turner (2B, WAS) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 11% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: It’s very possible that Trea Turner will be called up within the next week, because in order for the Nationals to obtain another year of control, he had to stay in the minors until May 30. Turner has been absolutely destroying Triple-A pitching this year. He's currently slashing .321/.385/.489 and has 16 stolen bases in just 190 AB. Danny Espinosa is the only one blocking Turner's path to a starting role, and he's been atrocious all year (.198/.298/.309). The Nationals have accomplished their shady control goals, so it's only a matter of time before they promote Turner and give their lineup a real spark.
