2020 SnakePit Awards: Most Valuable Player nominations open

The final SnakePit award is, of course, the most prestigious, even in a shortened season such as we’ve seen already. Despite there only being 60 games, I am initially inclined to continue the usual process, by which the winners of Rookie, Unsung Hero and Pitcher of the Year awards get automatic nominations, leaving the other slots (probably two or three) open for consideration. I really do not think that we’ll need all that many candidates. But even though the collective performance of the Diamondbacks was underwhelming, there were still some individuals who were worthy of praise. So, on that basis, Tim Locastro, Daulton Varsho and Zac Gallen are already on the final poll.
