I just don't see him as an every day player. He got a shot this year to play almost every day for a spurt and he did nothing with it.
.128/.277/.308/.584 in 47 PA against RHP in 2020.
.194/.276/.316/.594 in 272 career PA.
Maybe it happens and I hope I'm wrong, but what would lead us to believe he'll ever hit RHP?
Because his splits were very similar in the minor leagues. He was terrible vs. LHP and RHP in the first month of the season but hit both sides well in September. In 2019 he was terrible for the first half of the season vs. RHP and then had an 86 wRC+ from June 1 onward. But ultimately, you probably expect (or hope) that Naquin and Naylor can outproduce vs. RHP
