Naylor (general soreness) will start at first base and bat cleanup in Monday's game against the Tigers.
The Guardians held Naylor out of the lineup for the past few days while he contended with what manager Stephen Vogt had described as several minor injuries, but a stint on the injured list never appeared to be in consideration for the slugging first baseman. Naylor had been available off the bench Saturday and Sunday against the Tigers, though the Guardians opted to stay away from him to give him two true rest days. The Guardians will be hoping that the time off was enough for Naylor to recharge after he had turned in a lowly .130/.231/.174 slash line over his first seven starts coming out of the All-Star break.
