Mike Zunino is eager to work with Guardians catching prospect Bo Naylor.
The Guardians just signed a veteran catcher to a new deal, but also have a highly-rated catching prospect ready to break through in the Big Leagues. How exactly is that dynamic going to work?
According to newly signed Guardian Mike Zunino, it'll be more than just fine.
This is what Zunino had to say about how he'll work with Bo Naylor and help him prepare for his Major League career:

That's exactly what Guardians fans should want to hear from their new veteran catcher! He isn't going into it as a competition for playing time or to outshow him, but Zunino wants to be a teacher for Naylor
Zunino is here to both help the Guardians immediately and also help them in the future through working with Naylor. Clearly, working with him is something that Zunino has thought about even before signing with the Guardians and he wants to do everything he can to help Naylor.
Going into his tenth year in the MLB, Zunino has seen a lot. He was been a part of difficult seasons with the Mariners to a World Series run with the Rays in 2020. This is a great experience for Naylor to learn from.
It's really nice and refreshing to see and hear how excited Mike is to work with Bo. I'm just as eager as Zunino to see how their relationship will play out on the field.
