On bench against LHP
Naylor is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.
Analysis
With lefty Bailey Falter taking the mound for Pittsburgh, the lefty-hitting Naylor will retreat to the bench. Austin Hedges will bat ninth and fill in for Naylor behind the dish.

Smacks homer in win
Naylor went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a hit-by-pitch in Wednesday's 7-5 win over the Royals.
Analysis
Naylor's seventh-inning homer sparked a rally for the Guardians. He has gone 3-for-10 over his last five games, with two of the hits in that span being solo shots. The catcher is up to 11 homers in 101 contests this season, matching his total from 67 games a year ago. He's added a .206/.267/.368 slash line, 37 RBI, 35 runs scored and four stolen bases in 2024.

Idle for early game Monday
Naylor is out of the lineup for the first game of Monday's doubleheader with the Royals.
Analysis
Austin Hedges will draw the start at catcher for the early game while the Royals send a lefty (Cole Ragans) to the hill. Right-hander Alec Marsh is starting for Kansas City in the nightcap, so expect the lefty-hitting Naylor to settle back in behind the dish for that contest.

Resting against lefty
Naylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.
Analysis
With the Guardians concluding their series against the Rangers with a day game and with Texas sending a lefty (Cody Bradford) to the bump, the lefty-hitting Naylor will get the afternoon off. Austin Hedges will check in for Naylor behind the plate.
25 August 2024
Pops 10th homer
Naylor went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 13-5 win over the Rangers.
Analysis
Naylor's up to 10 homers on the year, three of which he's hit over his 18 games in August. Despite the slight uptick in power, he's batting just .226 (12-for-53) this month, though that's a little better than his .207 batting average for the year. The catcher has added a .626 OPS, 36 RBI, 34 runs scored and four stolen bases over 311 plate appearances. The Guardians have mostly stuck to a strict platoon at catcher between the left-handed Naylor and right-handed Austin Hedges in August, so Naylor should continue to see a healthy share of playing time.
