He deserved this....
November 18, 2008
Dustin Pedroia was the "short man" who was told several times in his life that he is to small to play in the major leagues. Last year in April Dustin Pedroia almost believed that, as he struggled in his first month in the big leagues. But Pedroia came back that year in 2007 and won the Rookie Of the Year award along with helping the Red Sox win their 2 World Series in 4 years. Pedroia started the 2008 year off fantastic as he was awarded a spot on the 2008 All-star game for the first time. Pedroia just kept on impressing at the plate and in the field, with his flops off the border of the infield and outfield while he caught the ball in his glove. Pedroia led the league in hits (213) for the season and also was led in doubles (54) and was second in multi-hit games(61) and runs with 118. Before he won the ultimate prize he also won a gold glove for his outstanding defense and a silver slugger for his great bat this off-season. 2- year Red Sox veteran Dustin Pedroia is the MVP of the AL for the 2008 season and he deserves it.
