Overview

  • Josh Naylor exited the third inning of Thursday’s game against the Chicago White Sox after exhibiting left shoulder discomfort and conferring with athletic trainers.
  • Manager Dan Wilson described Naylor’s shoulder soreness as day-to-day and expressed optimism that the issue is minor.
  • Veteran Donovan Solano took over first base in Friday’s lineup to maintain Seattle’s offensive balance.
  • Since his July 31 trade from Arizona, Naylor has slashed .261/.320/.478 with three home runs, plus a perfect 10-for-10 record in stolen-base attempts over 13 games.
  • The organization is treading carefully given Naylor’s similar June right shoulder flare-up, with Seattle chasing the AL West lead plus a Wild Card berth in sight.
