I would say if he hits .270/.320./.400 he will have a nice career as a 4th OF type somewhere but he isnt good enough to stick in Boston.[/quote]
At present .360/ .407/ .680 albeit very early but normally rookies don't get off to this kind of start. If he is any where near these numbers in a month JE goes back in center and the kid gets a more extended look in left.
The town loves the kids humility. I agree it's fairy tale but until they find a hole in his swing to exploit the kid contributes nightly and is growing on people and deserves a chance until either he proves he can or can't play at this level.
