Congratulations, Moose.
AL MVP Prediction
Carlos Quentin’s injury a month before the end of the season might have cleared the way for Dustin Pedroia to win the American League Most Valuable Player award. With David Ortiz’s nagging wrist injury frequently keeping him out of the lineup and Manny being Manny in Dodger Blue since the trading deadline, Pedroia and Kevin Youkilis carried the Red Sox offense for the bulk of the season. In addition to leading the league in hits, doubles, and runs scored, Pedroia walked 50 times versus only 52 strikeouts, finished second to Joe Mauer in batting average, and perhaps most impressively, stole 20 bases while being caught just once all season.
