Cruising the web

Cruising the web while watching the SEC championship game I found this comment at USA today about 2007 rookies:

8. Dustin Pedroia, IF, Red Sox: Depending on Boston's moves the rest of the offseason, Pedroia could end up being the team's second baseman or its shortstop. Second base is more likely, and he'll probably be a steady but not spectacular player with neither exceptional power nor blazing speed.

Pretty much sums up my feelings about Pedroia. I really think he will be a steady player but not an outstanding player.

A pretty good recap of Japanese players at USA today also.
