Turner will play second base and hit seventh as the Nationals host the Padres on Friday, Dan Kolko of MASN reports.
Turner will look to extend his five-game hitting streak tonight as the Nationals face Padres right-hander Luis Perdomo. In his short time with the Nationals, Turner is hitting .290/.313/.452 with three stolen bases in 31 at-bats. With Ryan Zimmerman (ribs) and Stephen Drew (illness) expected to return soon, Turner must continue to play well if he wants to remain on the Nationals roster.
