Justin Turner locked in at third base for the Dodgers

PHOENIX -- Justin Turner has played all four infield positions in each of the last four seasons, and has played at least three positions in his last six years. But the plan for 2016 is for Turner to stay put at third base, anchoring the hot corner for the Dodgers.

"We're going to keep him over there at third base, where he's comfortable," manager Dave Roberts said on Wednesday.

Turner is coming off microfracture surgery in his left knee in October, and the Dodgers don't want him putting extra pressure on his knee playing multiple positions.
