4 years agoAt 36 years old some may be questioning Justin Turner and whether he is worth drafting anymore in fantasy baseball. But looking at his recent track record, there is not a whole lot to doubt, at least not in the numbers. Turner continues to flash some of the best plate discipline you will see as he consistently limits the strikeouts, sporting a 14.9 percent strikeout rate in 2020, on par with his 14.6 career norm. He also increased the walks last season and had a walk rate over 10 percent for the third time in four years. This led to him once again being a great source of average, hitting .307 in 2020, he has hit over .300 in three of the past four seasons now and in the lone exception, he hit .290. The one knock on Turner is the lack of power, as he only hit four homers in 2020 and the ISO dropped to his lowest since 2014. But, there's reasons to be optimistic the power can return to his 2019 form. The past two seasons his exit velocity (90.3) and maxEV (107.8) have been nearly identical, while his barrel percent reached a career high 11.2 percent last year and has climbed each of the past two seasons. The best part is you do not need to pay up to get Turner. In recent ADP Turner is going around pick 224, meaning you can wait on third base and still end up with a very solid batting average, RBI and potentially HR contributor.--Michael Florio - RotoBaller
