Okay, so, I jumped into MLB The Show 24 the other day, right? I’m playing Road to the Show, grinding away, trying to make it to the big leagues. But here’s the kicker – I’m stuck on this team that’s, well, not exactly World Series material. In the older games, you could just tell your agent you’re not feelin’ it and boom, trade request. But this year? Nada. No such luck.
So, I’m scratching my head, thinking, “How the heck do I get myself traded to a contender?” I did some digging, asked around the forums, and you know what? Turns out, it’s all about playing the long game now. You gotta become a hot commodity. Basically no team is gonna care if you are not good enough.

Here’s what I did:
- Worked on My Game: First things first, I focused on boosting my player’s stats. More hits, more home runs, better defense. I mean if you’re not performing, why would any team want you, right? It’s like, who’s gonna trade for a benchwarmer?
- Played Every Game: Yeah, it’s a grind, but I played every single game. No simming. Gotta show ’em what you’re made of. Every at-bat, every play in the field is a chance to impress.
- Waited for Interactions: Now, this part’s a bit tricky. The game throws these little interaction scenes at you every now and then. It’s like your agent checking in or the manager having a chat. This is where you gotta drop hints.
- Expressed My “Desires”: During one of these chats, I finally got the chance to say I wasn’t too happy with the team’s direction. I kept it professional, you know? No point burning bridges. I just said I wanted to play for a winning team.
After a while, guess what? I started getting trade offers. It wasn’t immediate, but it happened. Patience is key, my friends. It’s not like the old days where you could just force a trade. Now, you gotta earn it.
So, that’s my story. No magic button to get traded in MLB The Show 24. Just good old-fashioned hard work and a bit of patience. If you’re stuck on a lousy team, just keep grinding, keep performing, and eventually, you’ll get your shot at the big time. Keep your head up!
