BOSTON (WBZ) ― American League MVP Dustin Pedroia has a new deal with Red Sox.

WBZ's Dan Roche has confirmed that Pedroia has signed a six-year, $40.5 million extension with the Sox through 2014 with a club option for the 2015 season.

Pedroia won the MVP award last month, becoming the first second baseman to earn the honor in nearly a half-century.

Pedroia was the AL rookie of the year in 2007, as the Red Sox won the World Series.
 
The deal was first reported by ESPN's Peter Gammons.

"That it got done this quickly shows how much Pedroia loves playing in Boston, and that he prefers playing to dickering over arbitration and free-agent dollars," Gammons wrote Wednesday.
