Bo Naylor is a fantasy baseball Cather prospect sleeper and minor leaguer to know. Read our MLB prospects outlooks for fantasy baseball rookies and call-ups.
PROSPECT: Bo Naylor, C, Cleveland Guardians
ANALYSIS: Well, it was an extremely short stint for Bo Naylor in Cleveland this time around as he was only brought up to serve as the 27th man on the roster for a double-header on Sunday.
As it stands on Monday night, Mike Zunino is slashing .172/.280/.322 with a 46% strikeout rate while Cam Gallagher has been even worse than that with a .100/.151/.120 line. Sure, they're both providing solid defense, but you have to imagine that Cleveland, who ranks in the bottom 10 of most team offensive metrics, will look to Naylor to provide a needed boost to their lineup. Naylor is currently slashing .257/.391/.507 with eight doubles and nine home runs in Triple-A this season.
VERDICT: It's unfortunate that he wasn't brought up permanently, but it shouldn't be long before that permanent move happens for him. Honestly, have you seen the catching situation in Cleveland this season?

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Samuel Basallo might be the best hitter in the minors right now, and he has catcher eligibility. What more do you need to know (I know catcher is super deep this year, but still)? Basallo has been an age-to-level monster for the majority of his pro […]
Andrew Painter - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-team leagues CALL-UP ETA: June ANALYSIS: Painter's last two starts don't give a ton of confidence that he is ready to be in the majors. It may not even be before the All-Star break before we see him, but that does not mean we are in stash territory. The good news is, […]
Colby Thomas - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 12)
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: The A's continue to lose, and Colby Thomas continues to hit homers in Triple-A.
