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.

Nava is back from the dead playing left for Boston after being "designated for assignment" at the end of last year.
The kid is essentially a walk on to camp this year and is hitting .180 at Pawtucket after 2 weeks essentially as a DH, a month later he busts the average to .320 and gets called up where he's 8 for 12 OBP his first 12 AB's playing left field like Yaz. The team sucks but this kid is facinating the way he keeps bouncing back from being kicked off the roster....
