Besides being named the AL's MVP, he also won the Gold Glove and the Silver Slugger this offseason. He was the 2007 AL Rookie of the Year and capped off that season with a World Series ring.
"I had to overcome a lot of things to prove people wrong, and so far I've done that," the 25-year-old Pedroia said on a conference call from his home in Arizona after he won the MVP award. "I have to find a way to have that edge."
RealGM Note: Pedroia was ranked 11th in season FIC and 'deserved' $16 million, giving him a Reina Value of +3,401%. [READ] |
