Grey Albright's 2025 Player Summary
Guardians traded Josh Naylor for Slade Cecconi and I have to assume Slade Cecconi knows where the bodies are buried. Nothing else makes sense. I’d happily say Josh Naylor was too expensive for the Guards, but he was the same-ish as newly signed Carlo... (click to read the rest)

Josh Naylor Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)

Josh Naylor projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections - combining Steamer rates and Razzball projected PA/Game and R/RBI - are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.

Josh Naylor Fantasy Outlook For 2024

Grey Albright Player Summary
Guardians traded Josh Naylor for Slade Cecconi and I have to assume Slade Cecconi knows where the bodies are buried. Nothing else makes sense. I’d happily say Josh Naylor was too expensive for the Guards, but he was the same-ish as newly signed Carlos Santana. What is [five minutes after downing ayahuasca] going on? Maybe they thought Naylor was preggers and didn’t think it was their kid. It is ironic that his homer celebration is rocking a cradle and now it looks like he’s got a baby on board sign on his back. So, nailed him being a sleeper last year! High five me! No? Why? Oh, because he only had a solid season because all the 1st basemen around him weren’t great? Okay, fair enough. Last year, Naylor went 31/6/.243 and that was the 3rd best 1st baseman on the Player Rater. [bugs eyes] Oh boy. At a certain point, letting oneself go might catch up to him. He gained forty pounds and lost almost forty points on xBA and his Ks, while still good, went up. Maybe that’s why the Guards abandoned him. I don’t know. Here’s to him figuring out how he can stave off further losses and continue to rock the baby as he rounds bases, rather than have a baby in his stomach.
