In the world of *MLB The Show 25*, the grass might seem greener elsewhere, and San Diego Studio ensures you're not rooted to one spot forever in their Road to the Show mode. Here's a detailed guide on how to demand a trade in *MLB The Show 25* Road to the Show, making your journey through the major leagues as dynamic as real-life baseball.
How to Get Traded in MLB The Show 25 Road to the Show
After concluding your high school journey in *MLB The Show 25* Road to the Show, you face a pivotal choice: head to college to refine your skills further or dive straight into the pros with the team that drafted you. Regardless of your path, you'll eventually have the power to choose which team you'll play for in the big leagues. This flexibility allows you to plan your career trajectory wisely, knowing exactly what kind of team environment you're stepping into. But, as with real professional sports, circumstances can change, and a fresh start elsewhere can be appealing.
In earlier iterations of Road to the Show, you could request a trade once you reached the majors. However, *MLB The Show 25* has changed this, removing the direct option to ask for a trade. But don't worry—there's a clever workaround to initiate a move to a new team sooner rather than later.
In the Sliders section of Road to the Show settings, you'll find an option called "Trade Frequency." This setting controls how often trades occur within the mode. By sliding this setting all the way to the right, you increase the likelihood of players, including yourself, being traded. However, don't expect immediate action; other teams need to take notice of your performance before they consider reaching out to acquire you.
Once your prowess starts generating buzz around the league, your agent will inform you, and soon, trade offers will begin to come in. Take your time to evaluate these offers carefully, as there's no guarantee that teams will continue to pursue you. When you find a destination that feels right, make your move. Once you're settled in your new team's clubhouse, consider sliding the Trade Frequency slider back down to minimize future trade requests.
And there you have it—a step-by-step guide on how to demand a trade in *MLB The Show 25* Road to the Show. For those looking to enhance their gameplay further, check out our article on the best hitting settings for *MLB The Show 25*.
