Which one are you choosing?

[Tank]

If you had to choose one option for yourself for an MLB career, which one would you choose?

If one of the mods knows hows to make the pictures smaller, feel free to do so.

Interesting, I think D would be my choice. A Championship and HoF? Most players will never get that and 200M is plenty of money for anyone. Option C seems like a mediocre player

Is Option A Griffey?

it could be but the place where i found this wasn't trying to associate any specific players with any of these options. 

and my purpose here is simply asking which career of these four would you want for yourself.

[arch stanton]

Is one championship worth $300 million? I think not. A is the only option

[Revad]

A championship would be worth $300M

[Angel Oracle]

Option D all day long

HOF and a WS championship, while still earning at least $10-12 million per season on average, sounds great to me.

Fuck Championships give me money.

Sounds like you’re willing to play for the Halos

[Stradling]

Option D (gross).

@Tank This is a really cool concept, I'm going to post this thread on the AW Twitter

Only if Sosh is managing.

First choice would be option B.

Would be nice to be talked about in almost every category (MVP, All Star, WS).

Plus you can do anything you want with $55M. Use that money to invest in businesses and everything else and it turns into a Magic Johnson or Shaq scenario being an entrepreneur. 

To me, Option B is the best of every possibility.

How in the world is B better than D?  You get one MVP?  With D you get 4 times the career earnings, the same number of championships and you are inducted into the HOF.  Trust me, if you make it to the hall no one is ever going to care if you were an MVP.

Gotta give a reason for an option that no one is choosing. 

But yes, Option B and D I would take.

Being in the HoF leaves you a permanent legacy. I’d want that

Yep and $200 million gets you everything else.  

[eligrba]

Publicly-Option D

Privately-Option A every time.

[AngelsLakersFan]

A and it's not even close. I'd use the extra money to buy the team and get that championship.

You guys are full of shit. 

Pass up half a BILLION fucking dollars because muh ring.

It’s $200 million, I will live better than I deserve while being a HOF player and a champion.

Cool. I'll take my $500 million and HOF status. 

$300 million or a championship? That's an easy choice.

[Capital_Dave]

D.

What is the difference between $200M and $500M?  With either one you are set for life as is your entire family.  Truly, what are you going to do with the other $300M?
