Justin Turner (hamstring) absent from Dodgers' lineup
Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Justin Turner (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup on Tuesday.
The Dodgers are likely erring on the side of caution after Turner exited Monday night's game with a hamstring cramp. Chris Taylor is taking over duties at third and is slotted to bat eighth versus Chase Anderson and the Milwaukee Brewers.
Turner is slashing .250/.330/.438 with 11 home runs and a .329 wOBA in 294 plate appearances this season. Our models currently project him to hit .266/.335/.438 with another 10 long balls and a .335 wOBA over the rest of the season.
