Nationals' Trea Turner: Optioned back to Triple-A

Turner was optioned back to Triple-A Syracuse Monday, Chase Hughes of CSN Mid-Atlantic reports.

The 22-year-old impressed in his 2016 debut, batting 3-for-3 with a double in the team's loss to the Reds last Friday, but he will now return to the minors as a result of Ryan Zimmerman returning from paternity leave. He will look to have continued success in the minors until another potential promotion from manager Dusty Baker.
