But First, A Word (or Two) About the Different Awards
There are a bunch of awards handed out at the end of the season, but the big three that fans can vote on are:
- All-Star Game MVP: This bad boy is all about who shines brightest on the biggest stage (besides the giant hot dogs, of course).
- World Series MVP: Buckle up, because this vote actually counts for something (more on that later). Basically, you get to decide who deserves the ultimate bragging rights after the Fall Classic.
However, for the big league awards like MVP, Cy Young, and Rookie of the Year, those are chosen by fancy baseball writer folks called the BBWAA. You can't vote on those directly, but hey, maybe your insightful tweets will inspire them!_
Now, Let's Get Voting! Here's the Lowdown:
- All-Star Game MVP and World Series MVP: These votes typically happen during the game itself on https://www.mlb.com/. Keep an eye out for a pop-up or banner asking you to choose your champion. It's fast, easy, and way more exciting than arguing with your uncle about who should've batted cleanup.
Pro Tip: If you're indecisive (or just love a good debate), rally your friends and have a mini-voting party complete with snacks and bad baseball puns.
QuickTip: Focus more on the ‘how’ than the ‘what’.
Is My Vote Actually Important?
For the All-Star Game MVP, it's mostly bragging rights. But for the World Series MVP, your vote counts for a cool 20%! That means your pick could actually influence who gets the trophy. Now that's some serious voting power.
Disclaimer: Responsibly using your 20% is key. Don't let homerun fever cloud your judgment!
