Jim is joined by Boston Globe sports columnist and Hall of Fame voter Chad Finn to break down the HOF candidacy of former Boston Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia. First, Chad and Jim cover Pedroia's playing style and violent swing (9:20). Next, they discuss Pedroia's performance in the 2008 ALCS, how he compares to HOF second baseman Bobby Doerr, and where he ranks among the best second basemen since 2000 (13:35). Finally, Chad and Jim discuss whether Pedroia's peak was great enough to overcome his weaker counting stats (37:00), if he was better than Nomar Garciaparra (44:01), and whether he deserves a plaque in Cooperstown (46:12).
