I understand that it hurts Turner’s fantasy value but Anthony Rendon put up a .400 OBP, walked more than he struck out, and lead the NL in fWAR last year. He is pretty clearly a better #2 hitter than Trea Turner. If we’re buying Eaton’s resurgence and Zimmerman doesn’t fall off a cliff, then Turner probably has no business hitting higher than #5 in that lineup.
