Dustin Pedroia has officially won the AL MVP award. Little Dusty reported for duty all year hitting .326 with 17 HRs and 83 RBIs while breaking franchise records by a 2nd baseman for runs, hits, doubles, batting average, total bases, and extra-base hits. He had an amazing year, I really thought either him or Youk could have won it this year (You came in 3rd), but Little Dusty probably deserved it. It is kind of amazing that Pedroia is the first Red Sox player to win MVP since Mo Vaughn in 1995. Not Manny, not Big Papi, none of those guys...Little Dusty brings the trophy home to Boston. I will admit I thought he overachieved his rookie year, but boy did he prove me wrong. Congratulations Dusty, look forward to watching you for years to come.
