Theoretically...

I’d prefer they give us a card that people actually want rather than who’s the MVP. No one cares who the MVP of an exhibition game is. Give us an Acuna or Tatis that’s loaded.
-
@GoozeFn_PSN Oh I know...was just saying Marte probably won't be MVP because his 2 rbis are less impactful now than the 3 run homer. The homer is the difference in the outcome at this point. Had the game remained a shutout (or 1 run for AL), then a case could be made for Marte.
-
They should just give it to Donovan. He's the only player on either roster with 2 hits tonight
-
I still think its Marte at this point.
-
Agree, the 2 runs were more important to the start than a 3 run Hr when the team was already up. Plus, that pitch would’ve been crushed by anyone on the field, 93 MPh fastball middle/middle, any HS’er would’ve crushed.
Marte with a 2 run double off the best pitcher in the league.
-
An Alonso card would be pretty boring. I get it if he's the MVP, but it's the last guy I want to see get a card at this point.
-
@SavageSteve74_PSN Not saying you’re wrong, but that’s not typically how player of the game is decided.
-
I know, but this is an exhibition game, it’s not a normal game. Gotta look at it in chunks since starters only get a chance early. Marte was the best of the best against the best of the best. Alonso hit a meatball pitch off a starter coming in as a reliever.
Not that there’s any real meaning to AS MVP, but just one man’s opinion.
-
That ChiSox pitcher who was a Rule-5 draftee should get best ASG card! Maybe give it to him for beaning Geno in each of his appearances against him!
-
They gonna have Schwarber catch now?
-
I’d be cool with a juiced Carroll or Marte card. You can keep Alonso. It’s not that like don’t like Pete Alonso. I just want a player that’s more dynamic Honestly I asked for it before but I really want a really good PCA card. One with at least 100 contact on both sides. I’m sure we won’t get it now though since they just released the other one.

Carroll already screwed Alonso out of a juiced card this year once, that would be ultra [censored] to do it twice
But I think Marte is MVP either way if this holds
-
@SavageSteve74_PSN Again, I don’t disagree with your assessment, but I don’t think that is how they will decide the player of the game.
-
well, MVP is now Diaz or whomever breaks the potential tie
-
@SavageSteve74_PSN it was a meatball of pitch but there’s no doubt in my mind they’re trying to strike out everyone. Everyone wants that Trophy
-
What a grab by Olson!
-
Well that saves us from an Alonso card!
-
Well, there goes my NL prediction.
-
All moot now!!
