Alright, listen up, y’all. You wanna know how to get outta your team in that there MLB The Show 24 game? It ain’t like it used to be, that’s for sure. Them youngins makin’ these games, they change things up all the time, don’t they? Used to be you could just tell your agent you were fed up and wanted out. Easy peasy lemon squeezy, like my grandson says. But no, not anymore. They took that away for “no good damn reason” as some folks online are sayin’.
Now, in real life, if a fella ain’t happy, he just ups and says he wants a trade, right? Maybe he ain’t gettin’ enough playtime, maybe his team’s a buncha losers, or maybe he just don’t like the color of the uniforms. Whatever the reason, he tells his boss he wants out. In the older games, you could do just that. You’d go to the options, find your agent, and tell him to get you outta there. But them days are gone, like a screen door in a hurricane.
So, how do you do it now? Well, it ain’t as straightforward, that’s for sure. It seems like there ain’t no real way to just ask for a trade straight up. It’s a real head-scratcher, I tell ya. You gotta play the game a bit, see? One thing folks are sayin’ is you gotta mess with your play style. Like, if you ain’t performin’ well, the team might just get tired of you and ship you off somewhere else. It’s like when your cow don’t give enough milk, you sell her off and get a new one, ya know?
- Play Badly: Yeah, you heard me right. If you want out, maybe try striking out more, making errors, just generally being a pain in the neck. The team might decide you ain’t worth the trouble.
- Change Your Archetype: Some folks say messin’ with your player’s archetype can help. Maybe if you switch from a power hitter to a slap hitter, the team might think you ain’t fittin’ in no more. It’s like tryin’ to fit a square peg in a round hole, ain’t gonna work.
- Max Out One Stat: Another thing I heard is if you focus on maxin’ out just one stat, like speed or power, and ignorin’ everything else, it might make you a less desirable player overall. Like havin’ a car with a super-fast engine but no brakes, ain’t nobody gonna want that.
There’s also this slider thing in the game settings. Seems like if you move it all the way to the right, it increases your chances of gettin’ traded. Folks are sayin’ you might get traded once a season that way. But here’s the kicker: you don’t get to choose where you go. It’s like gettin’ on a bus not knowin’ where it’s headed. You might end up on a good team, or you might end up in the middle of nowhere.
Honestly, it sounds like a whole lotta fuss to me. Why they gotta make it so complicated? It used to be so simple. You just told your agent, and boom, you were on a new team. Now you gotta jump through hoops and play games with the system. It just ain’t right, I tell ya. But that’s how it is, I guess. You wanna get traded, you gotta play by their rules, even if them rules don’t make no sense.
So, there you have it. That’s the lowdown on gettin’ traded in MLB The Show 24, as far as this old lady can figure it out. It ain’t pretty, but it’s what we got to work with. Just remember to play bad, mess with your player, and maybe, just maybe, you’ll get your wish and end up on a new team. Good luck to ya, you’ll need it.
