Naylor went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run, an additional run, two walks and a stolen base in a 6-3 win against the Padres on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Naylor had the biggest hit of the game for the Diamondbacks, swatting a 413-foot, two-run homer to center field in the fifth inning to give the team a three-run lead. He also stole a base in the ninth frame, giving him 11 homers and 11 thefts on the campaign. Naylor's power has dropped a bit this season (he hit 31 long balls with Cleveland last year), but he's otherwise been an astute pickup for Arizona, as he's posted a .299/.358/.469 slash line with 58 RBI through 82 games.

Naylor started at first base and went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Friday's 9-3 loss to the Royals.

Naylor is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Naylor returned to action Wednesday after missing the previous four contests with a neck injury. There's no indication he suffered a setback, but with lefty Robbie Ray on the bump for the Giants, it makes sense to give the left-handed-hitting Naylor a little more rest. Tim Tawa will handle first base and bat eighth.

In the meantime, Randal Grichuk will take over at designated hitter and bat seventh versus San Francisco.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Naylor was removed from Friday's loss to the Marlins before the start of the seventh inning due to neck stiffness, and he's beginning Saturday on the bench.

Per Jack Sommers of SI.com, Arizona plans to monitor Naylor and see how he feels Sunday before deciding whether he's ready to return.
