FACTS/FLUKES: Pedroia, Parker, Peavy, A. Cabrera, Martin
Mar 9 2014
A healthy start for Pedroia ... Dustin Pedroia's (2B, BOS) thumb won the honor of most-discussed appendage of 2013, as he injured it on Opening Day but played out the season in pain. Predictably, it sapped his power, as he finished with just 9 HR—his fewest since 2007. Now that Pedroia's thumb is supposedly fully healed, can we expect a return to vintage form?
