    I found it refreshing that a "gamer" like Pedroia won the MVP, not some superstar getting 20 mil a year. As they say, he's listed as a generous 5'9" and is respected for his glove work as much as what he does with the bat. The kid's a player and I'm glad he got the recognition he deserves.

    5' 9' is tall isn't it? Well it is to me. I wish I was 5' 9'.

    I was also very glad to see him win the MVP. He is one of my favorites. He gives it all he's got. What else can you ask for?
