Okay, so, I wanted to share my experience with getting traded in MLB The Show 24. It’s kinda tricky, but I figured it out, and I’m here to walk you through it.
First off, I started my Road to the Show, you know, the usual. Created my player, got drafted, and started playing in the minors. I was tearing it up, hitting bombs, making great plays, the whole nine yards. But I was stuck on the same team forever!
Asking for a Trade
So, I went digging into the menus. And guess what? You gotta actually request a trade. It’s not automatic, even if you’re playing like a future Hall of Famer.
- I navigated to the “My Ballplayer” screen.
- Then, I went to “My Career”.
- From there, I found “Locker Room”.
- In the Locker Room, you have options, and one of them is to interact with your agent.
- Boom, there it was, the option to “Request a Trade”.
I clicked that bad boy, and my agent started talking about how he’d see what he could do. It felt good, like I was finally taking control of my career, you know?
The Waiting Game
Now, here’s the thing, it doesn’t happen right away. You gotta keep playing games, keep performing. I guess the game wants to make sure you’re not just some scrub trying to jump ship. I kept grinding, kept putting up numbers.
A few weeks later, in-game time, I get called into the manager’s office. My heart was pounding. He tells me that my agent has been working the phones, and there’s interest from other teams. That’s when things start to feel real. You have to negotiate with your manager. You can suggest teams you are interested in, but it is not always easy to get the manager to agree with your agent.
Finally Traded
Finally, after a few more games, I get the news. I’ve been traded! It’s a whole cutscene and everything. It was a pretty cool feeling, seeing my player in a new uniform, ready to take on a new challenge.
So, that’s my story. If you’re stuck on a team in MLB The Show 24 and you’re playing well, don’t give up! Go request that trade, keep performing, and eventually, you’ll get your shot with a new team. It’s a bit of a process, but trust me, it’s worth it in the end.
