Trea Turner Could Return for Final Regular-Season Series
Trea Turner (hamstring) "could be activated for the final series of the season against the Minnesota Twins," which starts on Friday. The Phillies have been "thrilled" by Turner's recovery from a strained right hamstring and would love to get him some at-bats this weekend before the postseason begins in October. The 32-year-old All-Star is scheduled to face live pitching on Tuesday and Wednesday at Citizens Bank Park, and if he gets through that without any setbacks, it could pave the way for him to be cleared to come off the 10-day injured list on Friday. Despite being out the last two weeks with his hamstring injury, Turner still leads the National League with 179 hits on the year. He's leading the league with a .305 average, 15 homers, 69 RBI, and 36 steals in 140 games. Philly is going to need Turner fully healthy if they want to get back to the World Series.
