Justin Turner not expected to go on injured list

It looks like the Dodgers will avoid a major scare, as Justin Turner isn’t expected to be placed on the injured list. He was taken out of last nights game with a left shin contusion. Luckily, the x-rays came back negative.

Dave Roberts said he doesn’t think Justin Turner will need to go on the injured list. The off days and extra guy on the bench give them some leeway. He said Turner is available to pinch-hit in a “big” spot today.

This is certainly great news for the team, as Turner could even be in the game today if need be.
