Josh Naylor Still Absent With Back Spasms
Seattle Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor (back) will miss another game on Tuesday against the visiting New York Mets due to back spasms, according to MLB.com. Naylor was forced to leave the series opener at T-Mobile Park on Monday early due to back spasms and will miss another game. He's considered day-to-day for now, and fantasy managers will want to check to see if he's feeling good enough to return to action on Wednesday in Seattle. Patrick Wisdom will make the start at first base for the M's on Tuesday and hit seventh in the batting order. Naylor has been hot of late at the plate, going 10-for-33 (.303) with a homer, three RBI, and six runs scored in eight games since May 24. Overall in his first full season with the Mariners, Naylor is hitting .254/.317/.357 with a .674 OPS, only six home runs, 25 RBI, 12 stolen bases, and 21 runs scored in 224 at-bats. Naylor's power has been down after clubbing 51 homers in the last two seasons, but fantasy managers aren't complaining about his 12 stolen bases at the first base position.
