See RotoBaller at the top of Google

Seattle Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor has been hitting the ball quite well in the month of May. He has registered a base hit in 10 of 11 games this month, and he owns an impressive .333/.362/.444 slash line with one home run, four steals, and just six strikeouts. This hot streak has helped to improve his season-long stats, which weren't in the best place at the end of April. Now, through 40 games this year, he's slashing .247/.306/.367 with five home runs, eight steals, a 7.5% walk rate, a 15.6% strikeout rate, and 95 wRC+. His advanced metrics indicate that he's still slightly below average at the plate, but trending in the right direction. That should be refreshing news for fantasy managers, who have been patiently waiting for Naylor to regain his steady fantasy relevance. As it stands, he ranks #11 among first basemen in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings for 2026.-- Andersen Pickard Source: RotoBaller
