We do not have to be 5'9" to ride in this house

Thank you, Baseball Writers Association, for doing the right thing by Dustin Pedroia. We really weren't looking forward to going around breaking all your kneecaps if you'd voted for Delmon Young. Though, with the holidays coming, we could've used the frequent flier miles.

Congratulations, Monsieur Le Destroya. We will try to talk more about your fantastic gameplay and less about how Papi could carry you around in his pocket like a kangaroo does a joey.

And now, back to our regularly scheduled obsessive refreshing of Extra Bases for even a glimmer of a Lowell update.

ETA: Cursed to First has a delightfully eloquent post about Pedroia's many splendors. And now to bed, and dream of four-year contracts.

But his official profile SAYS he's 5'9" -- are you saying that's not true?!?

Even he cracks jokes about how that's a lie- "5'7" or 5'8" or whatever they say I am".

I love that smug little bastard.
