ESPN - Dustin Pedroia has signed a six-year, $40.5 million extension with Boston through 2014 with a club option for the 2015 season, ESPN's Peter Gammons is reporting


Interesting. I’d say this is quite below-market and a huge win for the Sox. Hopefully he doesn’t spend it all on bubble gum and baseball cards.

What a great move. Put a big ol' smile on my face, keep tis guy in Boston his whole career if it's possible.

Sweet, now they get all his prime years and can cut bait when he probably turns to **** around age 30-32.

Plus now they don't have to go to arbitration with him, which is always a plus as far as I can see.

I sure don't see anything wrong with this move for the Red Sox. Lock up a young player to a salary friendly deal. Good times.

Agreed, this was a no-brainer!

For anyone in the AL East that has to play against him 18 times, the signing sucks....lol

Smart move by the Sox.

Damn it.
