Are we ok at first base?

Hi guys! Despite moving to New Hampshire in 2022 (after 30 years near Prescott) we remain avid DBack fans. We watch every game on MLB package.

I’m curious to know your opinions about our first base position.
Is Josh Naylor a good (maybe, hopefully- great?) player?

 

[Dback Jon]

Better offense, a bit worse defense.

Overall the same or an upgrade, IMHO

 

[Ronin]

The same.

We will miss Walkers defense, though.

Welcome to the board! Here's hoping it's at worst a lateral move. He also brings some much needed fire, so it looks so far like a decent acquisition.

Thanks!! I’ve been a lurker and very rare questioner/commenter for years- and thank you for your opinion- all of you thus far. Much appreciated!

Jump into the fray - the more the merrier!

Considering the lack of elite lefty pitching in the division, it was a great move.

We good. Still miss C-Walk though
