Mariners' Josh Naylor: Out again Wednesday
Rotowire
Naylor (shin/wrist) isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.
As expected, Naylor will miss a second consecutive start following his removal from Sunday's game while he continues to recover from shin and wrist injuries. However, manager Dan Wilson said Wednesday that he expects Naylor to return to the lineup Thursday, per Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times, so the first baseman doesn't seem to be at risk of spending time on the IL. Miles Mastrobuoni will start at first Wednesday and bat ninth.

Mariners' Josh Naylor: Sitting down Tuesday
Rotowire
Naylor (shin/wrist) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
X-rays on Naylor's right shin came back negative following his early exit from Sunday's game against Washington. However, the Mariners will keep him out of action Tuesday, especially now that he is reportedly also dealing with a sore wrist. Miles Mastrobuoni will start at first base in place of Naylor, who appears likely to remain out of the lineup for at least a couple more days, per Jude.
Naylor had X-rays on his right shin come back negative after leaving Sunday's loss to the Nationals, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Naylor was forced from Sunday's contest after fouling a pitch off himself, but he appears to have escaped with a bruise. The 28-year-old went 1-for-3 before his exit and is batting .250 (12-for-48) with two doubles, three homers, a steal, eight RBI and seven runs through 12 games in June. Naylor will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery before Tuesday's series opener versus Baltimore.

Naylor extended his hitting streak to four games Monday, and he's now hit safely in 11 of his last 13 outings. The slugging first baseman was hitting just .118 for the year through April 16, but he's turned it around in a big way. Over his last 186 plate appearances (43 games) , Naylor is batting .325 with five home runs, seven doubles, 23 RBI and 12 stolen bases to boost his season OPS to .699.
Naylor (back) will start at first base and bat third in Wednesday's game against the Mets.
Naylor will make his return to the starting nine after he exited with back spasms in Monday's series opener and then sat out Tuesday's 8-3 win. The Mariners will hope that the brief absence won't disrupt Naylor's rhythm at the plate; over his last eight games, the 28-year-old has gone 10-for-33 (.303 average).
