Alright, let’s talk about how I figured out this whole trade request thing in MLB The Show 23. It wasn’t as straightforward as I thought it’d be, but I got it sorted out.
Getting Started
First things first, I fired up the game and jumped into my “Road to the Show” career mode. You know, where you create your own player and try to make it big? That’s where you need to be to request a trade. My player was stuck on a team that wasn’t really utilizing him, and I was itching for a change of scenery.
Finding the Option
So, I started digging around the menus. I checked the “My Player” section, poked around in “My Career,” and even looked through the settings. Nothing. I was starting to think maybe you couldn’t even request a trade in this version of the game. But I kept at it.
Then, I noticed a tab called “My Ballplayer”. I clicked it and finally saw an option labeled “Locker Room”. Bingo!
Making the Request
Inside the “Locker Room”, there was an option that said “Request Trade”. It was like finding a hidden door! I selected it, and a list of all the other MLB teams popped up. I could see how interested each team was in acquiring me, based on their needs and my player’s skills. Pretty cool, right?
I spent some time browsing through the teams. I wanted to go somewhere I could get some real playing time and make a difference. After weighing my options, I picked a team that seemed like a good fit.
The Waiting Game
Once I submitted my trade request, it wasn’t immediate. I had to play a few more games with my current team, which felt a little awkward, to be honest. But after a couple of games, I got a notification that my trade request had been accepted! Finally! My agent called me to give me the news.
Moving On
It felt great to finally get traded to a team where I could really shine. My new manager was giving me tons of opportunities, and I was making the most of them. If you are in a similar situation, don’t give up. Keep exploring those menus, find that “Locker Room,” and take control of your player’s destiny.
So, there you have it. That’s how I managed to request a trade in MLB The Show 23. It took a bit of trial and error, but it was definitely worth it in the end.
