Sometimes nice guys finish first

Dustin Pedroia, the 5'9" second baseman for my beloved Red Sox, just took the AL MVP award. The guy is unbelievably talented - he won a golden glove, a silver slugger, and now the MVP. He's one of the major reasons they did as well as they did this year.

Nice thing is, Boston also got third place with Kevin Youklis, their 1st baseman who ended up playing 3rd for a large part of the season.

Yeah, and A-Rod? 6th :P

    Well at least the Halos got a couple of their guys on the list, K-Rod and Vlade… Congrats on the MVP

    I would take Dustin Pedroia over the likes of Johnny Damon or Manny Ramirez or even Big Papi any day. All of the skill, none of the bullshit. What a great baseball player. I hope he has a long and glorious career.

    You’re gonna wanna strangle me, so I won’t infuriate you with my ignorance – lol. But you’ve got a great point there, too…

    Sometimes, nice guys DO finish first. :D
