00:00Trey Turner makes Phillies history in season finale.
00:03The Phillies just got a massive shot in the arm, and his name is Trey Turner.
00:08After sitting out most of September, nursing a grade 1 hamstring strain,
00:12the All-Star shortstop made his return just in time for the postseason sprint.
00:17And let me tell you, this isn't just any guy coming off the IL.
00:21This is the National League batting champ.
00:24Trey Turner finished the 2025 regular season with a .304 batting average,
00:28becoming the first Philly to win the batting title since Richie Ashburn in 1958.
00:34He held off Nico Herner to earn it, marking a standout year.
00:38While he's unlikely to win MVP, expect him in the top 10.
00:41Turner ranked second in hits, fourth in stolen bases, sixth in triples,
00:4616th in OPS, and showed a defensive resurgence with gold glove potential.
00:51In 2024, Turner struggled defensively with minus 16 DRS and 17 errors.
00:56In 2025, he cut errors to just eight, and posted a positive DRS, a true transformation.
01:04Just in time, too.
01:05Turner is the Phillies' spark plug in October, capable of sparking a rally with a single,
01:11stealing second, and rattling pitchers early.
01:13With a .265 average in 730 OPS and 32 NLDS games,
01:18his postseason track record proves he thrives under pressure.
01:21With Turner leading the charge, followed by Schwarber, Harper, and Boehm, that's a gauntlet.
01:27Pair it with a sneaky good starting rotation.
01:29Christopher Sanchez, Ranger Suarez, and Jesus Luzardo,
01:32and Juan Duran locking things down in the ninth.
01:35The Phillies aren't just hoping to make noise in the postseason, they're built to do it.
01:39And with Trey Turner healthy and heating up, they might just run the table.
