Naylor is a buy-low — the slump is BABIP noise, the bat is real.

His BABIP is .172, 123 points below the league average of .295. That number needs around 800 balls in play to be reliable, and he has 67, so the gap is luck, not a verdict on his bat. The bat itself looks fine: a 41.5% hard-hit rate, 11.9% barrels, and 89.1 mph off the bat, all at or above league average, with enough batted balls to trust the contact quality. His hard-hit rate has stepped up across the sample. His actual wOBA of .220 and expected wOBA of .293 both trail league, but neither has stabilized yet. The bounces are missing; the swing decisions and contact have not. Buy low.
