Turner went 1-for-4 with a double, a pair of RBI and a stolen base in a 6-5 win over the Royals.

The stolen base is a positive sign that Turner's knee is feeling good after receiving a preventative lubricating injection last week. He's having a strong spring, batting .375 (6-for-16) with seven RBI after posting career numbers last season. While the 27 home runs the 32-year-old hit last year will be hard to repeat, 2016 was his first full season as a starter in the majors. His isolated power rating of .218 last season isn't far off from the .197 he produced in 2015. So a slight regression in power may be expected, but Turner should still be good for close to 20 homers and solid counting stats while batting in the heart of the Dodgers' potent lineup.
