Bo Naylor Returning To Starting Lineup Tuesday
1 year agoCleveland Guardians catcher Bo Naylor (thumb) will return to the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener versus the Cincinnati Reds. The rookie backstop was removed from Friday night's game after two plate appearances with a right thumb contusion but will return out of the eight-hole while taking on Reds right-hander Hunter Greene on Tuesday in Cleveland. It's been a productive rookie campaign for the 23-year-old who is hitting .237 with nine homers, five stolen bases, a 13.4% BB%, and a .787 OPS across 217 trips to the plate. His removal on Friday snapped a six-game hitting streak, although Naylor has failed to record a multi-hit effort in that time.
