I'm writing a paper on who's deserving of the MVP

i know you wrote something similar to this bro


It was on my laptop which I don't have anymore, but I can help you if you need.

And I kinda changed it a bit, I wrote about the history of sabermetrics, their impact on the game, had a couple pages on Moneyball (the book not the movie you faggots).

Cause at first I was just comparing advanced and basic, but then as I went along it became way too obvious how much better sabermetrics were, and a good persuasive essay makes a strong argument for both sides, which just wasn't easy so yeah.

Yeah, pulse is pretty fun.
I tried doing Pulse + Allstar difficulty, was a bit tough but I put up realistic numbers and actually gave up walks + hits jajajja

MLB The Show is such a good franchise, but EA could make baseball games again starting next year. If they bring MVP back then it's game over.


MVP Baseball was the shit
