Most Valuable Player

The Most Valuable Player award has been given annually since 1931 by the BBWAA. MVP cards are among the most valuable in the hobby — an MVP season typically increases a player's rookie card value by 30-100%. Multiple MVPs (like Mike Trout with 3, or Barry Bonds with 7) create sustained long-term demand for that player's cards across all sets and years.
