Justin Turner doesn’t need to be a savior for Dodgers
Justin Turner is expected to start a minor league rehab assignment this weekend with Class-A Rancho Cucamonga, and conceivably could be activated at some point on the Dodgers’ road trip next week through Miami and Washington.
With the team’s poor start, the Dodgers have a long, arduous path before even thinking about contention. Getting their best hitter back in the lineup will go a long way to getting things back on track, but by no means will Turner’s return solve all the club’s problems.
But he doesn’t have to.
