Since leaving 262 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 3: San Diego in twenty twenty, Naylor has only progressed season 263 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 3: by season, showing very promising signs of being a cornerstone 264 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 3: in Cleveland in twenty twenty two. It may not be 265 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 3: obvious yet, but Naylor has taken another leap in twenty 266 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: twenty three. Last season, Naylor put up rear bests across 267 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 3: the board. He notched a weighted runs created plus of 268 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 3: one point seventeen and twenty twenty two, a jump from 269 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 3: just the ninety he had the previous season. 270 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: His expected weighted. 271 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 3: On base average a point three two seven was also 272 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,719 Speaker 3: a large improvement from the point three to one point 273 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 3: one he had in twenty twenty one, and he also 274 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 3: put up three outs of of average in the field 275 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 3: in seven hundred and forty eight innings. This led to 276 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: a fangrass War total of one point seven, a breakout. 277 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 6: Year for him. 278 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 3: As of June twenty twenty twenty three, Naylor has a 279 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 3: weighted runs created plus of one to ten, which may 280 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 3: seem like a slight decline. However, his expected weighted on 281 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 3: base average took a huge jump to point three to 282 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 3: sixty three this year, which ranks eighth among all first 283 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 3: base in the baseball If his luck manages to turn 284 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 3: towards where his expected stats show he should be, it 285 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,440 Speaker 3: will become a real powerhouse in Cleveland, so don't be 286 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 3: surprised if you see him begin a real hot streak soon. 287 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 3: Naylor has also improved his glove once again, having four 288 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 3: out of average in three hundred and sixty seven point one, 289 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 3: which is less than half the innings he played last year, 290 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 3: which leads him to be just third among first basement 291 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: and the statistic Naylor may only have a Fancraft fourth 292 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 3: of zero point eight, so far in the season. However, 293 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: once his results begin to emulate his expected stats, that 294 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,160 Speaker 3: number will quickly shoot up. The Guardians are only two 295 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,360 Speaker 3: games out of first place in a wide open Ale 296 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 3: Central race, and with Naylor's look potentially turning towards where 297 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 3: it should be and the return of Tristan mckenz each 298 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 3: other rotation, that Jamaican duo have a real shot at 299 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 3: pushing the Guardians step back to back Ale Central titles. 300 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 2: And that's it. 301 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 3: Numbers never lie so until the next episode.
