Extra MVP points
(This must be done from the Play Now! Option)
In order to receive lots of MVP points, simply do this:
1) Begin the game on Rookie, preferable against a AA team.
2) Play through the game, making sure to get lots of hits, stolen bases, etc.
3) Make sure the starting pitcher completes the game.
4) When your opponent is down to their last out, go into game options and switch the difficulty to MVP.
5) Get the last guy out to get lots of MVP points.

Pitch every game in a season with one pitcher
To play every game with one pitcher play one game, then, before starting the next game, edit anything about the pitcher by going into Team Management -> Rosters -> Create/Edit Player -> Edit Player. Open that player's edit screen, edit him and save the changes by pressing Start. His stamina will be completely full.

Easy MVP Points
When playing a Home Run Showdown or Pitcher Showdown, start the game on the MVP difficulty setting. As soon as the game loads up, pause and change the difficulty to something easier to handle, like Rookie or Pro. Now when you beat the computer you'll get the MVP points for winning on the MVP level, four times the original amount.

MVP Point Limit
You can only hold 50,000 MVP points at a time. Once you reach that amount, spend them. Otherwise, any points you earn afterwards will not be given to you because you're full.

More Easy MVP Points
First, check your MVP Rewards Checklist. Many of the tasks require you to beat certain teams at their home fields. Start a game against any of these teams and choose MVP Difficulty for maximum points. As the game begins, pause the game and switch controller ports to be the team that you're supposed to beat. If they are batting, simply swing and miss every pitch, and you will get large amounts of points for a Perfect Game, No Hitter, Shutout, and Complete Game. That's a couple of thousand points right there. When this team is on the field, just lob fastballs over the heart of the plate, or intentionally walk the batters and serve up Grand Slams. You get tons of points for putting up large offensive numbers. Now the most important part. At the end of the game, it is imperative that you switch the controller port back to the original team that you selected in order to receive credit for the final results. Since you need to beat the home team, they will have the last at-bat. So in the last inning, take control of the home team and do the "Swing and Miss" trick. Then on the final strike, swing as soon as the pitcher releases the ball, then quickly pause the game and switch the controllers again. It will be as if you aquired all of the stats for the visiting team, and you will be rewarded heavily for your performance.

Simulate to Earn MVP Points
In Dynasty Mode you recieve MVP points periodically for accomplishments. Assemble a team you feel is good enough to simulate to the playoffs (hint: Yankees). Simulate the season up to the second to last game and then save the game. Once you have it saved, simulate the last game and move into the playoffs. Generally, you recieve anywhere between 5000-9000 MVP points for making the playoffs. Save the points onto your profile when prompted, and then exit the Dynasty mode without saving. Repeat the process and you'll notice that every time you simulate into the playoffs you're saving the points and not your progress. Do this about 20-25 times and you'll have enough points for all the rewards.
