Naylor is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
After starting in the first two games of the series and going hitless with four strikeouts in seven at-bats, Naylor will cede his spot in the corner outfield to Hunter Renfroe. The two will likely continue to split time in the final week of the season with neither player having performed well enough at the plate lately to justify a full run of playing time.

Naylor is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Naylor rarely starts against left-handed pitchers, so it should come as little surprise that he was held out Friday with southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez on the bump for the Red Sox. Wil Myers will occupy Naylor's regular spot in left field.
