Description: Marlins pitching prospect Jacob Turner has allowed 46 hits, 23 earned runs and seven homers, walked 12 and struck out 26 in 43 1/3 innings with Triple-A New Orleans this season. | Insight: He's 3-3 with a 4.78 ERA in eight starts. The 21-year-old former Detroit Tigers first-rounder went 1-4 with a 3.38 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in 42 2/3 innings after being traded from Detroit to Miami for Anibal Sanchez last summer. With Wade LeBlanc struggling and Henderson Alvarez and Nathan Eovaldi on the DL, the Marlins could use Turner, but he hasn't pitched well enough at Triple-A to warrant a callup. | | |

Description: Righthander Jacob Turner turned in his best outing as a Marlin Friday versus Cincinnati.

Description: Marlins pitcher Jacob Turner will remain in the rotation, according to Joe Capozzi of the Palm Beach Post. | Insight: Turner is one of the top pitching prospects in baseball. He threw a quality start Wednesday in his first appearance with the Marlins since coming over from the Tigers and is worth a look in deeper leagues. | | |

Description: Jacob Turner's first start with the Marlins Wednesday went much better than his first six with the Tigers. Turner lost the game, but he threw a quality start and didn't walk a batter. | Insight: Turner is one of the top pitching prospects in baseball, but he posted an 8.28 ERA in six starts with Detroit over the past two seasons. Turner has recorded a 1.98 ERA in Triple-A since coming over in a trade for Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante. The right-hander will only stay in the big leagues if the team expands to a six-man rotation, but he could earn a permanent spot in September. | | |

Description: The Marlins have assigned right-hander Jacob Turner to Triple-A New Orleans. | Insight: Turner was acquired Monday from Detroit for Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante. He's considered one of the top prospects in baseball, so he's worth a look in deeper leagues if he's recalled this season. | | |

Description: Detroit has traded Jacob Turner for Anibal Sanchez and Omar Infante. | Insight: Turner has made six starts at the major league level and has allowed 23 earned runs in 25 innings, but the 21-year-old is ranked 10th on MLB.com's list of the top 100 prospects. It's unknown if Miami will keep Turner in the big leagues or send him to the minors, so you can hold off on adding him in fantasy right now. | | |

Description: In his second start of the season for the Tigers, the Angels throttled Detroit righthander Jacob Turner on Tuesday. In two innings of work, the 21-year-old allowed six hits and seven earned runs. He was taken out just 52 pitches into his outing. | Insight: Turner (0-1, 10.29 ERA) had a very encouraging game against the Cardinals in his first start of the year on June 21 (5 IP, 4 H, ER) but on Tuesday he was an absolute trainwreck. The Tigers were planning on using Turner in the rotation while Drew Smyly is out with an intercostal strain but after this awful performance, they may have to reconsider. | | |

Description: Detroit right-hander Jacob Turner tossed his first career complete game shutout, a three-hitter Saturday. Turner didn't walk a batter and struck out six. | Insight: Turner is 4-2 with a 3.16 ERA in 10 starts at Triple-A Toledo. The former first-round pick may get another shot in Detroit's rotation, as four of the five starters have an ERA over 4.40 going into the second half. | | |
| 6/21/2012 4:27:00 PM |
Description: Detroit righthander Jacob Turner pitched five innings and received a no-decision Thursday in his season debut for the Tigers. Turner let in one run on four hits, striking out three and walking five. | Insight: The high walk total is a bit of a red flag but Turner kept his team in the game and that's all the Tigers needed him to do. Drew Smyly is set to come off the DL sometime next week so Turner won't hold much fantasy value going forward. | | |
