Dustin Pedroia Not Close To A Return
5 years agoBoston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia (knee) is "still not at a point where he's thinking about trying to be ready to come back and joins us," according to manager Ron Roenicke. Pedroia hasn't officially retired, but things are quickly headed that way. The nine-time All-Star and former MVP (2008) and Rookie of the Year (2007) has played in a total of nine games the last two seasons due to complications from a knee injury, and he had a setback at the end of the last season while rehabbing. He turns 37 this August and is unlikely to make it back to the big leagues, let alone have a big impact with the major league club again. You can continue to ignore Pedroia in fantasy. Boston could use a platoon of Jose Peraza and Michael Chavis at the keystone this season.
