Mariners' Justin Turner: Multi-hit tally in win
Turner went 2-for-5 with a double in a win over the Cardinals on Friday.
The veteran extended his recent stretch of hot hitting with Friday's production, which pushed his average over the last seven games to .320 (8-for-25). Turner has three of the five extra-base hits he's generated since the start of his Mariners tenure July 30 in that span, and he's also striking out at just a 10.0 percent clip within the sample of 30 plate appearances.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Clubs two homers in loss
Turner went 3-for-5 with two solo homers in Saturday's loss to the Angels.
Turner launched a leadoff shot to left field in his first trip to the plate to put Seattle on the board before then adding a second leadoff homer in the fourth to give his team the lead. The first baseman would go on to reach three times in the contest while posting his first three-hit effort as a member of the Mariners. It marked Turner's second two-homer performance of the season, and he's now driven in and scored at least one run in back-to-back games. The long balls were only his eighth and ninth of the campaign.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Back on bench Sunday
Turner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.
Turner had started in six of the Mariners' previous seven contests, but all but one of those came against left-handed starting pitchers. The 39-year-old looks like he'll fill the short side of a platoon at first base with Luke Raley while Seattle has all of its key bats available.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Returning to bench Wednesday
Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.
After going 3-for-15 at the dish while starting in each of the Mariners' last four contests, Turner will head to the bench for the series finale. Three of Turner's previous four starts came against left-handed pitchers, and the Mariners are seemingly viewing him as more of a short-side platoon player at this stage of his career.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Two more hits Sunday
Turner went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Giants.
Turner's first multi-hit effort since Aug. 10 marked his sixth straight start hitting safely, albeit all via singles. The veteran has recorded just two extra-base hits across 66 plate appearances this month, and with 25 extra-base hits through 110 games, he's on pace for his lowest total in that category in a non-pandemic-shortened season since 2014. The lack of pop has resulted in him falling into a short-side platoon role, as he's started in only one of the Mariners' last three matchups with right-handed pitchers.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Contributes as in-game replacement
Turner entered Friday's extra-inning win over the Giants as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the sixth inning and remained in the game at first base, going 1-for-2 with an RBI single, a walk and a run.
Turner drew the free pass during his pinch-hit plate appearance, and then ignited the Mariners' four-run, game-tying rally in the eighth with a timely knock that plated Jorge Polanco. Turner hasn't offered much pop of late, but he's rapped out a single in four straight starts and continues to hold down a near-everyday role at first base.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Drives in two Saturday
Turner went 2-for-3 with an RBI single, a run-scoring double, a walk and a run in a win over the Mets on Saturday.
Turner had a significant hand in the Mariners' offensive output for the night, plating Randy Arozarena with his first-inning double before rapping a single to drive his teammate home again for the final run of the contest in the seventh. The multi-RBI effort was already Turner's third since joining Seattle at the trade deadline, and the multi-hit tally snapped him out of a 1-for-16 funk that had encompassed his previous five games.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Reaches twice in return from injury
Turner (hand) started at first base in Wednesday's loss to the Tigers and went 1-for-3 with a walk.
The veteran infielder was able to avoid missing any games after getting plunked on his left hand in Tuesday's game. Turner snapped a brief 0-for-6 skid that had encompassed his previous two contests with Wednesday's production, and he boasts a .362 average and .913 OPS across 15 games since the All-Star break, with six of those games coming with the Mariners.

Mariners' Justin Turner: In Wednesday's lineup
Turner (hand) will start at first base and bat fourth Wednesday against the Tigers, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.
Turner was pulled from Tuesday's contest after taking a pitch off his left hand, but his bruise won't keep him out of Wednesday's game. The 39-year-old veteran has been hot since the All-Star break, slashing .364/.407/.509 with two homers and eight RBI across 59 plate appearances.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Managing bruised hand
Turner was diagnosed with a left hand contusion after getting hit by a pitch during Tuesday's game against Detroit, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Turner remained in the game to run the bases after he took a 95-mph sinker off his left hand in the seventh inning, but he was later pinch hit for by Cade Marlowe in the ninth frame. Precautionary X-rays came back clean after the game, and Turner is officially viewed as day-to-day heading into Wednesday's contest.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Not starting Sunday
Turner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
Turner started the past four games after being acquired from the Blue Jays on Monday, and he went 5-for-18 with a home run in his first week with the Mariners. Jason Vosler will take over at first base in the series finale versus the Phillies.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Lifts grand slam
Turner went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies.
Turner put an exclamation mark on the Mariners' seven-run second inning, hitting his first homer with the team since he was traded from the Blue Jays. The 39-year-old has gone 5-for-14 with six RBI across his first three games with Seattle, and that's been enough for him to take over a starting role at first base, though he served as the designated hitter Friday. Turner is slashing .261/.351/.382 with seven homers, 37 RBI, 38 runs scored and no stolen bases across 93 contests this season.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Delivers in team debut
Turner started at first base in his Mariners debut Tuesday, going 1-for-5 with a run-scoring single and an RBI groundout during a 10-6 win over the Red Sox.
Acquired via trade from the Blue Jays a day earlier, Turner wasted no time making his mark in a Mariners uniform and simultaneously doing damage against one of his old clubs. The 39-year-old has been of baseball's steadier hitters over the last decade-plus, and after atypically struggling most of the season, he's now hitting a blistering .500 (14-for-28) over his last seven games dating back to July 23, a surge that's raised his average and OPS by 28 and 52 points, respectively.

Mariners' Justin Turner: Traded to Seattle
The Mariners acquired Turner from the Blue Jays on Monday in exchange for outfielder RJ Schreck, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Turner was mysteriously pulled from the first game of Monday's doubleheader in Baltimore after just one plate appearance, and the trade with the Mariners ending up being the reasoning behind his early exit. The 39-year-old will give Seattle an everyday option at first base and/or designated hitter, and while he's struggled to a .257/.351/.373 slash line for the season as a member of the Blue Jays, he should still help upgrade a slumping lineup. Seattle will absorb the $4.3 million remaining on Turner's $13 million salary for 2024, per Daniel Kramer of MLB.com.

Blue Jays' Justin Turner: Another three-hit effort
Turner went 3-for-4 with one RBI and one run scored in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Rays.
Turner has logged back-to-back three-hit efforts after opening July in a 4-for-41 slide. While he didn't knock an extra-base hit Wednesday, it's still encouraging to see the veteran make better contact. For the year, he's slashing .243/.339/.359 with six home runs, 31 RBI, 35 runs scored and no stolen bases across 85 contests.

Blue Jays' Justin Turner: Ends power drought Tuesday
Turner went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Rays.
The veteran slugger went back-to-back with Vladimir Guerrero in the sixth inning off Manuel Rodriguez to account for all of the Jays' offense on the night. Turner snapped a 21-game homer drought with the blast, a stretch in which he managed only two doubles and seven RBI while slashing .219/.348/.247. Given that he only signed a one-year deal with Toronto in January, Turner is one of the players the team will be looking to move by the trade deadline, so a hot streak to close out July could net the Jays a slightly better return.

Blue Jays' Justin Turner: Getting day off
Turner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
The 39-year-old will get a break in the series finale after he had started in each of the last six games while going just 1-for-24 with nine strikeouts. George Springer will get a day out of the outfield and will replace Turner as the Blue Jays' designated hitter.

Blue Jays' Justin Turner: Back from paternity leave
The Blue Jays reinstated Turner from the paternity list Saturday.
Turner won't start Saturday's game against Seattle, but he should retain his role as the Jays' primary designated hitter after spending three days away from the team for the birth of his child. The 39-year-old has slashed .250/.359/.375 on the season, though he boasts a 1.009 OPS over his last nine contests. Addison Barger was optioned to Triple-A Buffalo in a corresponding move.
