The news that Dustin Pedroia is likely to be out for the season was surprising to me. Based on what we’d heard from Alex Cora and from Pedroia himself it seemed like the plan was to be back on the field with this special team. Most shocking of all was the words “I’d love to play right now. But I can’t . . . I’m going to be back for good if I let it heal. That’s it. I’ve got to let it heal,” came from Pedroia’s mouth. Pedey is the biggest dirt dog this side of Trot Nixon and for him to admit the year might be lost really put things in perspective.
