Red Sox: Dustin Pedroia vs Bobby Doerr for best second baseman in franchise history

The Boston Red Sox have had a wealth of talent at virtually every position throughout their storied history. Second base has historically been a thin spot for the franchise and when debating which player was the best to field the position, there are two clear-cut options.

MLB.com recently revealed their list of the top second baseman for each team. It was a tough call for the Red Sox, with Dustin Pedroia narrowly edging out Bobby Doerr.

The key fact that supported their argument is that Pedroia is the only player to win an MVP Award, Rookie of the Year Award, World Series title and Gold Glove Award within his first two MLB seasons.
