2024 Player Outlook

2023 Recap: Turang's power didn't come through in 2023 like many were hoping, as he hit just six home runs while posting a .082 ISO and .300 SLG across 137 games. However, he went 26-for-30 on the base paths, which was excellent, and an 8.5 percent walk rate vaulted his OBP to .285, which is more palatable than his .218 batting average. The quality of contact was far from ideal, as he posted an 85.5 mph average exit velocity and 2.9 percent barrel rate in 2023. 

2024 Outlook: For 2024, he figures to play on the larger side of a platoon at second base, as the team likely will be cautious with their young infielder against lefties, seeing as he hit just .188 with a 35 wRC+ against southpaws last season. There's still plenty of maturation to be had with Turang at the major league level, and the speed plays. There's some concern with his offensive profile, but the speed is real, and if all you are needing is some speed, Turang is more than adequate, but be sure to inflate your other offensive categories.
