We come to the final category of the 2019 SnakePit Awards, that of Most Valuable Player. The tradition in previous seasons has been to give an automatic nomination to the MVP award, to the winners of the Pitcher, Rookie and Unsung Hero categories. For this year, that would mean Patrick Corbin, Yoshihisa Hirano and Clay Buchholz. It’s a very pitcher-heavy - indeed, pitcher exclusive - set of players. To counter that, we could simply give the two wild-card spots to the best position players. Fortunately, bWAR and fWAR are in agreement as to who that pair would be, both saying that Paul Goldschmidt and David Peralta were the team leaders.
