By most accounts, Washington Nationals’ shortstop Trea Turner started the season in a slump. It’s a short season, obviously, so there isn’t much time for the 27-year-old to ramp up going forward. The baseball season is one-third of the way through the schedule, but it’s only 20 games old — give or take depending on the team.
FanGraphs has recently included Statcast data on player profile pages, so while I was perusing Turner’s output, I found some interesting data points.
Over the last week, Turner seems to have broken away from the dreaded slump.
