Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner took a tentative step forward in his recovery from a fractured wrist when he took swings off a tee on Friday afternoon, manager Dave Roberts said.

Turner has yet to play this season after suffering the injury on March 19. The team has not announced a timetable for his return.

"I don't have a date yet when he's going to go out on a rehab" assignment," Roberts said. "But he's moving in the right direction."

Logan Forsythe, the team's replacement for Turner at third base, also took some swings in the batting cage on Friday.
