As if the Dodgers didn’t have enough injury woes, they’re trying to come to grips with the possibility that Justin Turner, their most consistent hitter and a driving force behind their World Series run in 2017, could be diminished for much of this season by the fractured left wrist he suffered in spring training.
The third baseman was out of the lineup for the third time in four games Friday night, and manager Dave Roberts said Turner may not play Saturday. In 20 games since being activated May 15, he is hitting .243 with a .668 on-base-plus-slugging percentage, with one homer and 10 RBIs.
