Trea Turner Appreciation Station

[imref]

i see hitting for the cycle as more a cool random occurrence than a major achievement.  Nobody 'tries' to hit for the cycle, they just do.  So it's fun to celebrate, but it's not a huge achievement.

So...the Werthquake doesn't get a mention yet?

[Truconfidence]

interesting Trea stat. he GIDP'd 1 time last year. this year already 3.

[monkeyhit]

when is he going to steal a base?

[GuyFromCO]

Possible poll? Who do you guys think is the fastest guy in the league this season? Margot is the name being passed around this season

[Ray D]

What one game achievements "mean a lot"?

Three homeruns, 10 RBIs, 6 for 6.

Turner's slumping. Swing not the same as last year. Seems to be affecting his fielding too.

How so? I haven't noticed anything.

He'll get it going eventually, but it was probably too much to ask him to hit .340 again.

I want to see him just get on base and start stealing bases again.

Turner isn't hitting. He went 0-13 vs Philly and is batting .154 for May. You can see the frustration on his face. Why isn't Rusty sitting him for a game or two? He is supposed to be so good with the players psyche. You could see he was pressing in NY and Az. where he went 7 for 27.

[DPMOmaha]

He's only at 70 AB's since coming back from the DL. Let's see where he is in 30 more AB's.

Extremely underwhelming start to the season. I hope this is just a slump.

There's never been a player in the history of all sports that was more due for a sophomore slump than Trea Turner.

I feel bad for anyone who drafted him in the first round of their fantasy draft.

That said... he'll figure it out.

I had him on my keeper team for a whole year before he even made it to the bigs.

[NatsAllThe Way]

Some people were saying he was an MVP candidate before the season started. I guess that's why they play the actual season.

Meh, a lot of things get said before the season. Gotta fill the space with something.

[Truconfidence]

Well Trea's recent success comes after he asked his girlfriend to marry him so maybe the reverse Harper going on here. By the way Harper's wife seems to be best buds with Trea's gf which might be a better harbinger of where Bryce ends up then anything.

[Optics]

He now leads the league in steals.

What'd she say?

[Truconfidence]

What'd she say?

Obviously yes, they have been dating for 5 years. Seems Kay Harper has been desginated wedding planner by Trea gf according to their instagram comments with her congratulating her.

[Mathguy]

Have there been any reports describing the amount of time Trea Turner may be out of action ?

[Mattionals]

Likely 2-3 months going by other similar injuries.

[nats2playoffs]

Prayer vigils for Trea Turner continue...

So after the wedding Kay Harper is lined up for a White House job??

 

[bluestreak]

Maybe this as a possible Trea replacement?
