Trea Turner Could Return on Sunday
Philadelphia Phillies manager Rob Thomson said that shortstop Trea Turner (hamstring) had another encouraging day of work on Friday, but he will not come off the 10-day injured list to play on Saturday against the Minnesota Twins, according to Lochlahn March of the Philadelphia Inquirer. However, Turner may return on Sunday. The 32-year-old All-Star and likely National League batting champion in 2025 has been sidelined since Sept. 8 with a right-hamstring strain. The Phillies have not rushed him back after already locking up a playoff spot and a first-round bye, but they would like him to get some at-bats this weekend before the end of the regular season. Barring a setback, Turner should be a lock to play in Game 1 of the Division Series on Oct. 4. They will be hoping that Turner can pick up right where he left off before his injury. He's currently hitting .305 (179-for-587) on the year with 15 homers, 69 RBI, 94 runs, and 36 steals.
