Jacob Turner

Jacob Turner was walloped for seven runs (five earned) on six hits and a walk in the first inning of Tuesday's game versus the Angels. He also struck out one batter, and Detroit went to the bullpen in the second inning.

Fantasy Impact

Turner was called up from Toledo on Tuesday for his first start of the year. The seven-year journeyman has a career 5.37 ERA and has zero fantasy relevance.

Miami Marlins pitcher Jacob Turner, who was designated for assignment, has cleared waivers and will be assigned to the Triple-A New Orleans Baby Cakes.

Fantasy Impact

Turner made the team out of Spring Training, but then allowed eight runs in just one inning of work in the 20-run disaster against the Phillies. Turner will work in Triple-A and try to make his way back onto the 40-man roster.

Miami Marlins pitcher Jacob Turner has been informed that he has made the Opening Day roster.

Fantasy Impact

Turner will pitch in middle relief for his second go-around with the Marlins. He won't have any fantasy value, even if he works his way into the rotation.

Turner went five an third innings, only giving up three runs while striking out a batter.

Fantasy Impact

While he has proven to be a valuable asset to the Nationals with his versatility, he has little fantasy upside at this point.

Turner earned the win in four innings of work on Wednesday evening. He only gave up two hits and fanned four batters.

Fantasy Impact

It was surprising to see Turner come on in relief as he had previously been named the fifth starter after Ross's demotion. Playing on a strong National's team, Turner has a chance to win every start and should warrant some consideration of ownership in NL and deep leagues.
