Turner will start Sunday's game against the Brewers, the Chicago Sun-Times' Gordon Wittenmyer reports.
Analysis:
Kyle Hendricks was anticipated to be the starter for the final game of the regular season, but with Hendricks sitting at over 180 innings this season (a career high), they decided to shut him down. This is bad news for fantasy owners, as Hendricks would have been an intriguing option, while Turner has a 6.98 ERA in 29.2 innings with the Cubs this season.
