Turang is a Super Two player, so this is the first of four seasons of arbitration for him, assuming he’s not locked up on a long-term deal at some point. He hit .288/.359/.435 during an exceptional 2025 season, and he’s likely to be Team USA’s starting second baseman in the WBC.

Turang’s big power surge seems to have come to an end; he last homered two weeks ago and that’s his only homer in 82 plate appearances over his last 20 games. Still, he’s remained effective for the Brewers in hitting .293/.391/.427 this month.

Turang had been 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts through the first nine innings but was still able to play the role of hero with his RBI knock off of JoJo Romero that put the Brewers ahead in the top half of the 10th. He has had a terrific overall season at the plate, slashing .286/.356/.436 with 18 homers, 77 RBI and 24 stolen bases.

Turang came through with a go-ahead RBI single off of Luis Garcia in the seventh inning that put the Brewers ahead to stay. He then raced around to score on an RBI double off the bat of Christian Yelich. Turang is having an outstanding season for the Brewers, slashing .289/.359/.440 with 18 homers, 76 RBI and 24 stolen bases in 624 plate appearances.

The Brewers opened the first with back-to-back homers from Turang and Jackson Chourio. Christian Yelich then followed with an 111-mph rocket to center that was run down by Michael Helman. As it turned out, it was the latter event that set the tone for the rest of the game. Turang is up to 18 homers, 12 of which have come in his last 36 games. He totaled 19 homers in his previous 397 games as a major leaguer.

Turang is at second base and batting sixth on Sunday afternoon following a brief one-game absence due to left wrist soreness. The fact that all precautionary imaging came back negative for any structural damage is encouraging. However, as fantasy managers are well aware, wrist issues tend to be problematic recurring issues for hitters, so it’ll be worth monitoring his status over the next few weeks, even if he manages to avoid the injured list.

Turang was plunked during Friday’s game. While all imaging came back negative for any structural damage, he is still dealing with some soreness. He worked out on the field prior to Saturday’s game and attempted to give it a go before they ultimately made the decision to keep him out. He’s considered day-to-day.

Turang kicked off the scoring with a two-run homer against Cubs starter Shota Imanaga in the second inning, which turned out to be enough offense for Brewers rookie Quinn Priester and five relievers. The 25-year-old speedster is up to 14 round-trippers on the season, double his previous career-high mark that he set last season, and has also chipped in 21 stolen bases through 123 games. He’s a top-five range second baseman for fantasy purposes until further notice.

Turang swapped lineup spots with Sal Frelick after entering the day with a .333/.382/.784 line this month. With the shot off Cade Horton in this one, he now has seven homers in August. That’s more than a quarter of his career total; he had six homers in 137 games as a rookie in 2023, seven in 155 games last year and six in 104 games this season prior to this stretch.

Turang was removed from Tuesday’s blowout win over the Pirates with a sore pinky, but it was purely precautionary as evidence by his return to the lineup less than 24 hours later.

Brewers’ manager Pat Murphy was quick to note after the game that the finger had been bothering Turang for a while but that it isn’t anything serious and won’t keep him out of the lineup. It sounds like he was just getting his guy a rest in a lopsided game. Expect Turang to return to action on Wednesday.

Turang got the home half of the first inning started with a bang, swatting a 3-1 sinker from Andrew Heaney for a 406-foot (105.3 mph EV) solo shot that gave the Brewers an early lead. He also drew a two-out walk in the second inning but was left stranded there. For the season, the speedy 25-year-old is now hitting .278/.345/.405 with 11 homers, 55 RBI and 21 stolen bases.

Turang has now homered in back-to-back games and has four home runs in the last week. He’s now 11-for-30 in seven games in August with four home runs, 10 RBI, and two steals. This is the best stretch we’ve seen from Turang at the big league level, but he’s now up to 10 home runs and a .399 slugging percentage on the season after hitting only seven home runs with a .349 slugging percentage last year. The 25-year-old hasn’t come close to his 50-steal pace from last season, but the batting average and power improvement have been nice to see.

Turang jumped all over a cutter that simply spun the heart of the zone from Kodai Senga and blasted it 424 feet for the second longest home run of his career. Ironically, his longest came earlier this season in Coors Field, so it only kind of counts. He chipped in a stolen base later on after a rare walk from reliever Tyler Rogers to complete this combo meal. Turang has made real strides at the plate this season, already setting his career-high with nine home runs and a shockingly solid .732 OPS to go along with 21 stolen bases.

Turang, who came into today with just a .714 OPS and six home runs, is not exactly known for his power, but he put on a display on Sunday, which was the first multi-homer game of his career. Neither home run was a fluke, with the first one traveling 399 feet at 105.2 mph off the bat and the second going 396 feet at 100.6 mph off the bat. He also added a 101.3 mph groundout and a 100.7 mph flyout, so Turang was seeing the ball incredibly well today. If Sal Frelick (knee) were to miss time, Turang could lead off against right-handers, which would be big for his fantasy value.

Turang struck out four times for the first time in his career in the 1-0 loss last night. This was a better day, as he drove in three runs for the second time this season. He should have some extra fantasy value at the moment, since he’s returned to the leadoff role with Sal Frelick hurt. However, it sure would be nice if he went back to stealing bases. He was 8-for-11 in April and 6-for-6 in May, but he was caught on four of his seven attempts in June and he’s just 1-for-2 this month. At this rate, he might not even make it halfway to his 2024 mark of 50 steals.

The 23-year-old top prospect is expected to get a real shot at becoming the team’s regular season baseman. He possesses an intriguing blend of power and speed which makes him an interesting addition in deeper mixed leagues for the second half of the season.

Matthews is up with a chance to make his MLB debut after being drafted in the first round in 2023. The 23-year-old has forged an .876 OPS with 10 home runs and 25 stolen bases, and he offers some long-term fantasy upside. It seems unlikely he’ll have a ton of relevancy in 2025, but he’s certainly worth keeping an eye on.

The 23-year-old was the Astros’ first-round selection (28th overall) from the 2023 draft class. He has been brilliant at Triple-A Sugar Land this season, slashing .283/.400/.476 with 10 homers, 39 RBI and 25 stolen bases in 325 plate appearances. A shortstop by trade, he has played mostly second base in the minor leagues this season. He could cover shortstop while Jeremy Peña recovers from his rib injury before shifting over to second base. He could wind up being an impact addition in deeper mixed leagues based on his stolen base upside combined with his strong bat-to-ball skills and power potential.

Turang could soon find himself back in the leadoff spot at this rate. He’s batting .429 during a 12-game hitting streak. The last four of those have all been multihit games.

Turang got the Brew Crew on the board with a two-run single in the fourth inning. The 25-year-old has hit for very little power as seen in his .370 slugging percentage, but a .283 average and 16 stolen bases has made him more asset than detriment from a fantasy perspective over the first 82 games for Milwaukee.

Turang’s home run, a three-run shot off David Festa in the fifth inning, was his fifth of the season. Turang is more-known for his speed as he stole 50 bases last year and has 16 stolen bases this year. He’s getting on base more this year and has boosted his average from .254 to .274 (so far) in 2025, but his slugging percentage has barely improved despite being only two off last year’s homer total through late June. Turang has just 11 doubles and zero triples.

Turang drove in a run on a sacrifice fly in the first inning, then later led off the eighth with a double and scored on a sacrifice fly by Isaac Collins. Turang collected a second hit and run scored in the ninth. The 25-year-old second baseman is hitting a solid .272/.351/355 with four homers, 49 runs scored, and 16 steals across 317 plate appearances.

The 23-year-old is on fire right now. Over his last 30 games, Matthews is hitting .308/.424/.607 with 14 extra base hits, including seven home runs, plus 24 RBI, and nine steals. That has amounted to a 165 wRC+. He’s knocking on the door for an MLB promotion.

The Astros’ top prospect started off the year slowly, but hit .333 in 54 at-bats in May. He has cooled off some, but is hitting .258 with an .832 OPS at Triple-A this season with seven home runs, 27 RBI, and 17 steals in 50 games. He has played primarily second base this season and could be a factor for the Astros if they move on from Brendan Rodgers and want to keep Mauricio Dubon has a utility player.

Turang sat out two of the team’s previous three games while feeling a bit under the weather. It sounds like Thursday’s off-day did him a ton of good though as he’s feeling much improved and ready to get back to work. He’ll start at second base and bat second for the Brewers on Friday evening in Tampa Bay.
