The Los Angeles Dodgers once again are in danger of not having a starter in the MLB All-Star Game despite boasting a roster that features players who are among the best at their position. Such is the case with Justin Turner.
When the Dodgers placed Turner on the 10-day disabled list in May with a hamstring strain, he was batting .379/.453/.493 with 13 doubles, one home run, 17 RBI, a .414 wOBA and 160 wRC+ in 39 games.
Turner at the time led the National League in batting average. That would still hold true but because of time missed, he does not have the minimum plate appearances necessary to qualify.
