Homers in loss Turang went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Atlanta.

Impact Turang has seen fairly steady playing time since the All-Star break, but he's gone just 4-for-24 (.167) over his last nine games. His homer Sunday was his first extra-base hit in that span. For the season, he's slashing .203/.272/.313 with four homers, 20 RBI, 20 runs scored and 11 stolen bases through 250 plate appearances. Turang appears to have at least a strong-side platoon role at second base, and he should remain in the lineup regularly while Owen Miller and Andruw Monasterio cover the corner infield spots with Rowdy Tellez (forearm) and Brian Anderson (back) sidelined.

Sits against lefty Turang is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

Returns to majors Milwaukee recalled Turang from Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

Impact Turang made the Opening Day roster out of Brewers camp this spring but got demoted to the minors in early June after slashing just .205/.254/.307 across his first 177 major-league plate appearances. He then put up a .927 OPS with three homers and two steals in 15 games at Triple-A to push his way back to the bigs. The 23-year-old has good speed and a bit of power, though he might not play regularly enough to offer mixed-league fantasy appeal.

Optioned to Nashville Milwaukee optioned Turang to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Impact Willy Adames has been activated from the concussion IL and Turang will head back to Nashville for a bit more minor-league seasoning.

Steals bag in win Turang went 2-for-4 with a triple, a walk, a stolen base and an RBI in Tuesday's win over the Orioles.

Impact Turang laced a triple to right in the fourth but was left stranded and later provided a clutch RBI single in the eighth to tie the game up at three. Tuesday's effort was Turang's first time with a hit since May 27, which also was coincidentally the last time he's tallied an extra-base knock as well. The growing pains have been very apparent for the 23-year-old rookie, as he had tallied just one hit over his last 41 at-bats before his triple. Turang now sits at a slash line of .205/.254/.307 with three homers, 14 RBI, 16 runs, nine steals and an 11:48 BB:K over 177 plate appearances.

Hits bench versus lefty Turang is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.

Impact The lefty-hitting Turang will hit the bench against Reds southpaw Andrew Abbott, but the young infielder previously sat out the series opener Friday, when the Brewers opposed a right-hander (Graham Ashcraft). Turang still appears to have a tentative hold on a regular role in the middle infielder when the Brewers oppose righties, but with Luis Urias (hamstring) returning from the injured list Monday and Willy Adames (concussion) likely on track to be activated Thursday, Turang and Andruw Monasterio will both soon see their playing time second base and shortstop take a major hit.

Impact Turang is just 1-for-36 across his last 12 games, putting him at serious risk of losing reps to the hotter bats of Owen Miller and Andruw Monasterio.

At shortstop Wednesday Turang is starting at shortstop and batting seventh Wednesday versus the Blue Jays.

Impact Turang has lost a lot of potential reps at second base to the hot-hitting Owen Miller, but he could continue to be a regular presence at short for the Brewers while Willy Adames recovers from a concussion. Turang holds a brutal .215/.264/.315 slash line on the season, though he has tallied three homers and seven steals.

MAY 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out versus southpaw Turang isn't starting Friday against the Giants.

Impact Turang will take a seat Friday as the Giants roll out left-hander Alex Wood to begin the game. Owen Miller will move to second base in Turang's place, moving Brian Anderson in to third base and allowing Tyrone Taylor to start in right field while batting eighth.

Impact Turang cranked out the first three-hit performance of his young professional career after garnering a rare start against lefty Jordan Montgomery.

Impact Turang took Jose Cuas deep to center in the third to cap off a seven-run inning by the Brewers. The long ball was his third of the year and just his first since April 17. Turang has picked it up some at the plate after he was slumping for a good majority of April. Over 11 games in May, he's slashing .313/.371/.438 with three RBI, five runs and a 3:10 BB:K. The 23-year-old has seen the majority of his starts come against right-handers while Owen Miller has stepped in to fill in against lefties.
