MLB.com: For all the attention that little Dustin Pedroia gets for his big bat, his emergence into an elite second baseman has too often been lost in the shuffle.

I'd argue that both things have been lost in the shuffle about his height (note the "little" in the above sentence). I hope this and the ROY last year are the beginning of an end to all that. Dustin Pedroia is, quite simply, an awesome player. Full stop.
