2 years agoMilwaukee Brewers shortstop Brice Turang, the team's No. 5 prospect per MLB Pipeline, has made the team's Opening Day roster. Turang convinced the club he's ready for the big leagues by hitting .282 (11-for-39) with a double, home run, four RBI, five runs scored and three stolen bases in 15 Cactus League games in camp. The 23-year-old shortstop is expected to see most of his playing time at the keystone in Milwaukee against right-handed pitchers. In 131 games for Triple-A Nashville in 2022, Turang hit .286/.360/.412 with a .772 OPS, 13 home runs, 78 RBI, 89 runs scored and 34 stolen bases in 603 plate appearances. While he could struggle offensively in his first taste of big-league pitching, he should be useful in deep-mixed leagues for his speed.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

5 days agoMLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports that Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (shoulder) was set to play in a minor-league game on Monday in order to pile up at-bats, and at this time, he's considered full-go for Opening Day on Thursday against the New York Yankees. Turang missed more than a week in spring training with a shoulder injury, but he had two hits in Sunday's Cactus League game and will be ready to go for the start of the regular season later this week. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old's shoulder injury won't allow him to open the year at shortstop -- Joey Ortiz will be there -- but he'll be locked in as Milwaukee's everyday second baseman as long as he doesn't suffer a setback with his shoulder. Although the Platinum Gold Glove winner tailed off offensively late last year, it was still a strong sophomore campaign. There's room for growth, but as of right now, consider him middle-infield depth with good speed and a safe floor.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoMilwaukee Brewers infielder Brice Turang (shoulder) will open the season as their starting second baseman. Turang was in contention to shift to shortstop, but the team will opt to move Joey Ortiz to that position and keep Turang at the keystone. The 25-year-old is also batting shoulder soreness, but this injury is not viewed as "serious." Last season, Turang made 152 starts at the keystone. Across 155 total games last summer, Turang posted a .254/.316/.349 with seven home runs. Most of his fantasy value came from his speed as he swiped 50 bags, the third-most in the National League. Under the hood, Turang held a strong 17.0 percent strikeout rate but generated a low .297 xwOBA. Fantasy managers should view Turang as a low-end No. 1 second baseman and will carry most of his value in category formats as a speed specialist.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoMLB.com's Adam McCalvy reports that Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Brice Turang (shoulder) tried to throw at camp on Monday, but it didn't go well. The good news is Turang's MRI exam didn't show any structural damage in his right shoulder, but he will be shut down for three to five days. McCalvy adds that the Brewers aren't worried about the 25-year-old missing Opening Day next Thursday, but they may revisit their middle-infield configuration after being very close to naming Turang as their starting shortstop. It now seems more likely that Turang will stay at second base and Joey Ortiz will move to the 6 to begin the year. Turang won the Platinum Gold Glove at the keystone last year, so this shouldn't be that big of an issue, but fantasy managers may be wondering if his shoulder injury will affect his swing at all. It's still possible that Turang is moved back to shortstop at some point, which would allow him to gain shortstop eligibility in fantasy.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoMilwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (shoulder) is dealing with shoulder fatigue. He was scratched from Saturday's lineup but the team noted that the move was precautionary. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status but the injury does not seem overly serious. When healthy, Turang is expected to be the everyday second baseman in Milwaukee. Last season, the 25-year-old appeared in a career-high 155 contests. During this stretch, Turang held a .254/.316/.349 line with 24 doubles, four triples, and seven home runs. However, most of his fantasy value came from his speed as he swiped an impressive 50 bags, which was the third-most in the National League. Fantasy managers should view Turang as a top option for speed that carries little upside in the other four standard categories.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
