| Daniel Nava an RBI machine |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (5/11/13) Red Sox outfielder Daniel Nava has 23 RBI over 30 games this season, second on the team to Mike Napoli.
Nava has driven in four runs in his last three games after going 1 for 3 with a double and two RBI Friday against Toronto. He's batting .297.

| Daniel Nava probably a short-term fix |
by Scott White | Senior Fantasy Writer (5/3/13) To those who think Daniel Nava's .298 batting average and .932 OPS through 24 games are a sign he's turned the corner at age 30, need I remind you that he had .339 batting average and .969 OPS through his first 38 games last year. Need I also remind you that he had a .312 batting average and .890 OPS through his first 23 games upon his initial call-up in 2010.
Needless to say, he fell and fell hard soon afterward. We've seen this act before from him. If he couldn't maintain those numbers then, what makes now any different?
I understand why he's owned in 69 percent of leagues. He's the hot hand right now, and playing the hot hand is a viable strategy in Fantasy. Just don't get too attached to him. Seeing as the Red Sox have four lefties for the upcoming week, against whom he's a career .202 hitter, he may already be on the verge of a regression.

| Daniel Nava staying reliable for Boston |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (4/28/13) Red Sox outfielder Daniel Nava has become a reliable player and not just a feel-good story for manager John Farrell this season, MLB.com reports Sunday. Nava is one of Boston's most reliable hitters.
"He's gained valuable experience at this level," Farrell said. "I'm sure it's given him confidence. He believes he can compete and contribute every day at this level."
Nava entered Sunday against Houston with a .402 on-base percentage, which is 11th-best in the American League. He's homered four times with 16 RBI over his first 70 at-bats.

| Daniel Nava keeps on hitting |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com (4/24/13) Red Sox outfielder Daniel Nava singled to right field in the fifth inning on Wednesday as a pinch-hitter for Jonny Gomes against the Athletics. That single drove in Dustin Pedroia to make the score 6-3 in a game Boston won 6-5.
Nava remained in the outfield following the at-bat and ended up recording another single. He finished 2 for 2 and is batting .327.
The 30-year-old Nava has been a consistent presence in the lineup for the Red Sox over 17 games and 55 at-bats. He's homered four times with 15 RBI and a .426 on-base percentage.

| Daniel Nava hitting fifth again Tuesday |
by Chris Cwik | CBSSports.com (4/23/13) Red Sox outfielder Daniel Nava will bat fifth against the Athletics Tuesday.
This will mark Nava's fourth start in a middle-of-the-lineup spot. He's been fantastic this season, hitting .320/.429/.600 in 50 at-bats. After hitting six home runs all last season, he's already clubbed four this year. Nava will face off against Bartolo Colon.

Hit Parade for Week 7
Which hitters are trending in a negative direction? Which upcoming schedules may favor some of your sluggers in Fantasy Week 7? Our Scott White shares his take on all of your bats in his Hit Parade.

| Daniel Nava has potential – he takes a lot of walks, has shown some power and speed in the minors and could legitimately put up a .310 batting average. But when presented the chance to play every day in 2012, Nava was hit with injury and never had a chance to really dig in and prove himself. He may not get another opportunity like this, and is probably destined to a series of 300 at-bat seasons until another break allows him to step in and prove he can be a regular at the major league level. Owners in points leagues may give him a shot in AL-only formats, but he'll probably float on most waiver wires for the majority of 2013. (Updated 12/3/12) |
