...about Dustin Pedroia, and his value. I don't think contracts should play a role in the MVP debate, so I left it out of my award explanation, but here's a tidbit that you might find interesting.
Dustin Pedroia earned $457,000 for his 2008 season. That's $8,463 per double, $26,882 per home run, $22,850 per steal, $3,873 per run scored and $2,146 for every hit.
On the flip side, Andruw Jones earned $14 million (and is due $17 million next season). He was paid $454,545 per hit (just shy of Pedroia's total salary), $5 million per home run, $714,286 per run scored, $1.875 million per double and the former 20 steals guy didn't swipe a bag all year.
Just some food for thought.
