Player Stats

Josh Naylor went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base on Wednesday against the Brewers.

Naylor helped break this game open with a two-run single off Dustin May in the second inning to make this game 7-0. The Mariners stopped scoring after that, but still had enough to win the game. Despite a poor season at the plate, Naylor has recouped some of his fantasy value with 25 stolen bases.

SEA 1st Baseman #12

Josh Naylor (wrist) is back in the lineup for Wednesday’s showdown against the Yankees.

Naylor returns to first base and will hit sixth following a one-game absence due to right wrist soreness. The 29-year-old has been a disappointment from an over-the-fence power and batting average standpoint, hitting just .263 with 10 homers across 474 plate appearances in 111 games. He’s managed to salvage his season from a fantasy perspective by tallying 23 stolen bases, putting him on pace for his second consecutive 30-steal campaign.

SEA 1st Baseman #12

Josh Naylor is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Yankees with right wrist soreness.

Naylor tweaked his wrist on a swing last week. It doesn’t sound like a significant concern, especially since he launched a pair of round-trippers during Sunday’s series finale against the Rays. However, the Mariners are going to proceed with an abundance of caution to prevent it from developing into a greater concern. Fantasy managers should consider Naylor day-to-day for now. It’ll be Weston Wilson taking over at the cold corner in his absence.

Josh Naylor hit two homers and doubled in the 3-2 loss to the Rays on Saturday.

Naylor had 10 total bases tonight. The rest of the Mariners had five, all on singles. It’s Naylor’s seventh career two-homer game and the first to come in a loss. He has 10 homers on the season.

Josh Naylor is not in Thursday’s starting lineup against the Tigers.

He’ll get a breather against Tigers LHP Framber Valdez. Naylor is hitting .267/.330/.314 since July — with zero homers — and .260/.323/.355 on the season. He’s still giving you the occasional steal, but it’s been a rough year for Naylor so far.

SEA 1st Baseman #12

Josh Naylor went 2-for-4 with a double, a steal and two runs scored Wednesday against the Reds.

Naylor has been very consistently mediocre offensively throughout the season, but the steals have been there once again; he’s now 21-for-25, even though he went his first 21 games without attempting one. He’s batting .261/.323/.359, giving him a .682 OPS. He hasn’t finished a game with an OPS under .660 or above .700 since May 6.

Josh Naylor (wrist) is in Seattle’s starting lineup for Thursday’s game against the Orioles.

He missed the last two games with the injury, but Naylor is ready to roll against Orioles RHP Shane Baz on Thursday. The 28-year-old is hitting .253/.315/.372 in 296 plate appearances so far this season, with eight homers and 13 stolen bases.

Josh Naylor (wrist) is out of the lineup for the second straight game on Wednesday against the Orioles.

Naylor receives some extra time off to rest and recover as he battles a lingering wrist issue. The 28-year-old slugger also fouled a ball off his shin over the weekend, which didn’t help matters. It’ll be Miles Mastrobuoni taking over at first base in his absence. All indications have been that Naylor will be ready to return to Seattle’s lineup at some point this week.

Josh Naylor (shin, wrist) is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Orioles.

Mariners general manager Justin Hollander told reporters Naylor is dealing with both shin and wrist issues that will keep him sidelined for at least Tuesday’s contest. It sounds like he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list, especially since initial X-rays didn’t reveal any fractures after he fouled a ball off his shin over the weekend.

X-rays returned negative on Josh Naylor’s shin after he exited Sunday’s game against the Nationals.

Naylor fouled a baseball directly off his shin and looked to be in quite a bit of pain. He was able to finish the at-bat, but exited when Seattle went on defense. For now, Naylor should be considered day-to-day.

Josh Naylor was removed from Sunday’s game against the Nationals after fouling a ball off of his right shin.

Naylor was down on all fours and in considerable pain for a minute but talked his way into staying in the game to finish the at-bat. He was ultimately removed with the M’s took the field for the sixth inning. He’ll head for X-rays to see if there’s any structural damage. Stay tuned.

Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts told reporters on Sunday that he thinks Andy Pages underwent a minor surgical procedure to repair a left hand fracture.

There’s still no clear timeline for his potential return to action, but it’s encouraging to hear that the procedure was minor. As long as the Dodgers have him back in time for the postseason, they’re not going to rush his rehab.

Jac Caglianone was a late scratch from the Royals’ lineup on Sunday due to renewed ankle soreness.

It’s an issue that has been nagging at Caglianone for a while now and the same injury that caused him to miss Thursday’s game after making an early exit on Wednesday. It’s possible that if it continues to linger it could require a trip to the injured list.

Teel has been shelved since the end of July due to a high ankle sprain. He should only need a couple of games there to get his timing back and could be an option to rejoin the White Sox at some point next weekend barring any setbacks.

Diamondbacks designated RHP Zack Littell for assignment.

With Drey Jameson returning from the injured list on Sunday, the Diamondbacks needed to free up a spot on their active roster and Littell drew the short straw. The 30-year-old hurler posted a 7.50 ERA, 2.08 WHIP and a 3/4 K/BB ratio over 12 innings in three appearances with the Diamondbacks.

Félix Bautista (shoulder) struggled in his first minor league rehab appearance at Double-A Chesapeake on Sunday, recording only one out.

The 31-year-old hurler faced five batters in the ballgame — allowing a hit and three walks in the process. He threw just 10 of his 22 pitches for strikes while maxing out at 97-mph on the radar gun. It’s going to take some time to shake off the rust following Tommy John surgery, so expect inconsistency upon his return.
