2025 Player Outlook
Naylor gave fantasy managers 13 home runs and six stolen bases, but he hit just .201, and his strikeout rate ballooned to 31.4 percent. He really struggled against sliders, and the massive jump in strikeout rate can likely be attributed to a combination of less contact in the zone, more swings out of the zone, and a seven-percentage point jump in his whiff rate. He hasn't hit lefties well in his short MLB career, so there is some platoon risk, especially if Cleveland wants to ensure they get Fry's bat in the lineup against LHP (.996 OPS vs LHP in 2024). Naylor provides some cheap pop and a handful of stolen bases behind the dish, but he should only be on your radar if you play in AL-only or two catcher setups.
Player News
Bo Naylor went 2-for-3 with a homer and a walk against the Reds on Monday.
Naylor also homered as part of a three-hit game on Sunday, so he’s raised his average from .171 to .196 the last two days. That’s still far from great, obviously, but since he has nine homers and 26 walks in 182 plate appearances, he’s been just about a league-average hitter.
Bo Naylor went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and two runs scored in a win over the Astros on Sunday.
Naylor is now up to eight home runs on the season but has just 18 RBI and a .187/.299/.393 slash line. The power has been nice to see, but he’ll need to connect more consistently if he wants to land on many fantasy radars.
Bo Naylor hit a two-run homer in the Guardians’ 7-5 win over the Tigers on Saturday in extra innings.
Bo Naylor hit a game-tying two-run double in the ninth against the Twins in Monday’s suspended game, which was completed Wednesday.
Naylor’s shot down the right field line off Jhoan Duran would have been a three-run homer in 24 ballparks, according to Statcast. In Minnesota, it hit high off the wall, being fair by about a foot. Naylor has raised his OPS from .601 to .698 in his last 19 games. He’s actually just 11-for-54 during that span, but his hits have included four homers and four doubles.
