2025 Player Outlook
It will be interesting to see how Trea Turner ages, but entering his age 32 season I am not worried about him slowing down yet. He was a steal short of a 20-20 season in just 121 games last year, if he had reached his average plate appearances from the previous 3 season his pace would have gotten him to 26 homers, 24 steals, and 111 runs scored. If he is healthy he could easily push toward the 30 steal total again with a great average, a ton of runs scored, and 20+ homers.

Trea Turner went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run, and two runs scored in a win over the Braves on Wednesday.
Turner took a ninth-inning pitch from Raisel Iglesias and hit it 402 feet at 101.4 mph to break a 3-3 tie. It’s Turner’s third home run off of Iglesias despite only having eight total at-bats against him in his career. It was Turner’s first home run of the season. Despite the spring discussion of having Turner lead off and run more, the 31-year-old has settled in as the two-hitter in Philadelphia but does have four steals on the season to go with his one home run, which fantasy managers love.
Trea Turner went 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored on Friday, helping to lead the Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Dodgers.
The Phillies’ leadoff man doubled off of Yoshinobu Yamamoto in the opening inning, swiped third base and scored the game’s first run on a throwing error. He also worked a walk to lead off the sixth inning. The dynamic 31-year-old shortstop is still searching for his first home run of the season but is now hitting .313 (5-for-16) with a pair of runs scored, one RBI and two stolen bases.
Trea Turner (back) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Rockies.
Turner will be making his first start since Opening Day after dealing with back spasms. The 31-year-old should be in lineups for Wednesday’s tilt against Kyle Freeland and the Rockies.
Trea Turner (back) walked and scored a run as a pinch-hitter on Monday against the Rockies.
Turner came off the bench to pinch-hit in the seventh inning, his first appearance since Opening Day due to back spasms. The 31-year-old shortstop expressed optimism prior to Monday’s series opener that he would be ready to play by Wednesday, but clearly felt well enough to help out in a close ballgame. It’s a welcome development for fantasy managers as they attempt to navigate the avalanche of early-season injuries.
