Daily News | Will Trea Turner continue to bat second when he returns to the Phillies’ lineup?
. Across the board, his numbers are far below his usual marks. A career .302/.355/.487 hitter coming into the season, he’s batting .245/.297/.384. His defense has slipped, too, with 12 errors and four defensive runs saved below average.
At this point, though, the Phillies will try anything short of an exorcism — and maybe even that — to kickstart their $300 million shortstop. “Easily that’s a lot of what goes into going into slumps or tough times. Guys just try to do too much,” Thomson said. “Every day, I think he’s going to get back to being who he is. It’s going to happen. I’m sure of it. It’s just a matter of when.”
Scouting reports on Song, internally and among other teams, have been mixed, according to multiple sources. One rival evaluator said that his team had concerns about Song’s velocity. Song’s fastball has been mostly 92-94 mph after being in the 96-98 mph range before he left for the Navy.
