Recently, we reported that
Baseball Essential had ranked
Dustin Pedroia as the seventh-best second-baseman in the game. Now,
MLB Network has deemed The Muddy Chicken as the fourth-best second-sacker right now. The only current MLB second-basemen ranked ahead of
The Laser Show were:
Jose Altuve,
Robinson Cano and
Daniel Murphy. After Pedroia, the rest of the list includes:
Ian Kinsler,
Jason Kipnis,
DJ LeMahieu,
Brian Dozier,
Logan Forsythe and
Ben Zobrist. Pedroia is coming off an outstanding, injury-free year and will be a vital cog in the 2017 Red Sox offense.
