Alright, so, I wanted to figure out how to get traded in MLB The Show 24. It’s not super obvious, you know? So I did some digging and tried a few things out. Here’s what I found out.
Start Your Career
First, I started a new “Road to the Show” career. I picked my position—shortstop, because who doesn’t want to be a star shortstop?—and went through all the usual stuff, creating my player, choosing my team, all that jazz. I made sure to play well in the initial showcase games. You gotta show them what you’ve got, right?

Grind and Make Your Voice Heard
Then, the grind began. I played a bunch of games in the minors, focused on improving my stats, and completed the challenges my agent gave me. I also started to realize that to get traded, you need to actually ask for it. Who knew? So, I waited until I was far enough in the first season, I called my agent through the menu, and selected the option to discuss trades.
Negotiate Your Way Out
He wasn’t too happy about it, kept saying I should just focus on playing. But I was persistent and kept talking with him about the possibility of a trade. At first he wasn’t into it, but I kept telling him what teams I wanted to go to. After a while of telling him I wanted out, I finally got the option to request a trade.
The Waiting Game
After I requested the trade, I had to wait. I played a few more games, wondering if it would actually happen. Then, boom, I got a call from my agent saying a trade was in the works. A few days later, I was officially traded to the team I wanted!
My Tips for Getting Traded
- Play well: This is a no-brainer, but you need to perform well to even be considered for a trade.
- Talk to your agent: Don’t be shy about bringing up the topic of trades.
- Be patient: It might take some time for your request to be processed.
- Keep improving: While you’re waiting, keep working on your skills.
So yeah, that’s how I got traded in MLB The Show 24. It’s a bit of a process, but totally doable. Just keep playing hard and don’t be afraid to speak up!
