Dustin Pedroia received 16 of the 28 first-place votes to top Justin Morneau and win AL MVP honors.
Pedroia may not have been the best choice for the award, but he clearly was the superior option among the guys who actually had a chance of winning. Joe Mauer, the AL's most effective player, finished a distant fourth, receiving two first-place votes. Morneau received seven first-place votes, Kevin Youkilis two and Francisco Rodriguez one. By points, it went Pedroia (317), Morneau (257)
He's more like 5'6" at most and he kind of looks like a 6 year old swinging at a T-ball when he's at bat. And yet he's an amazing, goddamn hitting machine. A true inspiration to all the people out there who don't necessarily look like your typical athlete of today.
he just got lucky? haha he is a rookie and he is going to be amazing. they just need to keep him in everyday and not let jed lowrie take any of his starts
It's okay BronxBomber, its 9:20 on April 16. Pedroia just got Boston in the lead by 2, so stop your whining about him not being fit and stuff. And he's ass kicking this year, sorry to say.
lmfao at least he is having a good time lol

I dont get why these stankee fans are calling him all this shit. He's a tiny guy, 5'9'', hes in pretty good shape for his size.

I'm sure hes in pretty good shape, he just isnt a physical specimen. Pedroia is an exception to the rule. Not many ballplayers that small can be good
