Rotowire
Turang (knee) said he's in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
The second baseman has been dealing with left knee discomfort and sat out the entirety of the four-game series against the Dodgers, but he's apparently good to go after Monday's team off day. Turang has a .582 OPS through 12 games in August but is batting .308 (8-for-26) with three doubles and six RBI over his past six contests.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Remains idle Sunday
Rotowire
Turang (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's matinee with the Dodgers.
Turang will be left on the bench for a fourth consecutive game Sunday as he continues to deal with discomfort in his left knee. Per MLB.com, Turang was able to take part in an on-field workout prior to Saturday's 4-1 win and was available off the bench, so the Brewers are seemingly hopeful that he'll be feeling well enough to re-enter the lineup for Tuesday's series opener versus the Mariners.

Rotowire
Turang (knee) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Turang will miss a third consecutive start Saturday while battling discomfort in his left knee. He's scheduled to participate in fielding drills before the game, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, and there's a chance Turang could be cleared to return for Sunday's series finale if things go well. In the meantime, new arrival Jonathan Ornelas will start at the keystone and bat ninth.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Not in Friday's lineup
Rotowire
Turang (knee) is not in the Brewers' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Friday.
Turang is working through some pain in his left knee, which has kept him out for the first two games of the series against the two-time defending World Series champions. Turang is considered day-to-day, though how his knee reacts to on-field work Saturday will be key to whether he needs a stint on the injured list, per Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. David Hamilton will start at second base and bat eighth in Turang's absence.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Dealing with left knee injury
Rotowire
Turang (knee) is not in the starting lineup Thursday night against the Dodgers, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Turang is dealing with left knee pain, and he underwent an MRI on Thursday. Manager Pat Murphy did not rule the second baseman out past Thursday's contest, but Turang is expected to get a second opinion following the MRI. If Turang is forced to miss any action moving forward, David Hamilton and Ji Hwan Bae would be the top two candidates to fill in for him at second base.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Included in lineup in series finale
Rotowire
Turang (thumb) will start at second base and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Padres, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Turang played the entirety of Tuesday's 11-2 loss before Brewers manager Pat Murphy revealed after the contest that the infielder had been dealing with a sprained thumb. According to McCalvy, Murphy issued a retraction when he spoke to the media Wednesday, noting that he meant outfielder Jackson Chourio had been playing through the thumb issue rather than Turang. With that in mind, fantasy managers should have no reservations about including Turang in lineups while he's staged an impressive follow-up to his breakout 2025 campaign. He'll head into Wednesday's contest with a .269 average, 16 home runs, 16 stolen bases, 75 RBI and 74 runs through 114 games.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Suffers thumb sprain
Rotowire
Turang was diagnosed with a sprained thumb following Tuesday's loss to the Padres, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Turang remained in the game for the entirety of Tuesday's contest, so it's unclear when exactly he got hurt, but the Brewers may now be at risk of losing another infielder after placing Cooper Pratt (hamstring) on the injured list Sunday. Turang will presumably undergo imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and the team will likely know more about his status before Wednesday's series finale.

Rotowire
Turang (foot) is starting at second base and batting third Sunday against the Marlins, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
The 26-year-old was scratched from Saturday's lineup after fouling a pitch off his foot Friday, but he's been cleared to play after doing some running on the field pregame. Turang went 0-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout to open the second half Friday, but he's been productive at the plate in July with seven doubles, two homers, two steals, 12 RBI and seven runs through 12 games.

Brewers' Brice Turang: Homers, swipes bag Thursday
Rotowire
Turang went 2-for-5 with a home run, a stolen base, two total runs and two total RBI in an 8-4 victory versus St. Louis on Thursday.
Turang singled home a run in the third inning and plated himself with a 419-foot solo shot to center field in the seventh. He added a stolen base, marking the third time this season he's homered and swiped a bag in the same contest. Fantasy managers likely remember the early portion of Turang's career when he was all speed and little power, but that's no longer the case. After belting a career-high 18 long balls over 156 regular-season games last year, he's on pace to exceed that mark with 13 home runs through 88 contests so far in 2026. Turang has added a .269/.361/.462 slash line, 65 runs, 56 RBI and 15 steals to further cement his status as one of MLB's top second basemen.
