I’ve been a Yankees fan since I was born.   I’ll always be a Yankees fan.  But the older I get the more I can appreciate individual players.   And while Dustin “Petey” Pedroia has been somewhat of a fantasy baseball let down so far (even though he’s leveling off and will be fine) he remains and will most likely remain one of my favorite players in the league.

How can you not like this guy?  He’s 5’8, yes 5’8 and weighs under 160 lbs and is this good a baseball player.  But that’s not even what kicks ass about him.  He’s pretty much bald already and the dude has an ego the size of the moon.
