Bo Naylor is a Canadian catcher who emerged as one of the promising young players for the Cleveland Guardians. Born on February 21, 2000, in Mississauga, Ontario, he was selected 29th overall in the first round of the 2018 MLB Draft. Known for his athleticism behind the plate, Naylor combines solid defensive skills with developing power at the plate. After steadily progressing through Cleveland’s minor league system, he made his major league debut in 2022 and began showing flashes of his potential as both a hitter and a game-caller. Bo is also part of a baseball family—his older brother, Josh Naylor, is a power-hitting first baseman and outfielder who has also played for the Guardians, making them one of the few brother duos currently in Major League Baseball.
