Okay, let’s talk about how to request a trade in MLB The Show 24. I wanted to move to a new team, so I started looking into how to get traded.
First, I tried looking for an option to directly request a trade like in the old games. I spent hours searching through menus but no luck. It seems like they removed that feature in this version. Then I remembered that in some older versions, you could talk to your agent to initiate a trade, so I went to the main menu in Road to the Show mode and found the “Interactions” section for my player.
In there, I looked for anything related to contacting my agent. Finally, I found the option! I selected it, hoping it would lead to a trade request. There was a conversation with my agent, but at the end, no option for trade requests. I felt disappointed. It was a dead end.
So, I thought, maybe there’s another way. I started playing games and deliberately performed poorly, hoping to get benched or something. I struck out on purpose, made errors in the field – you name it. I even tried to act like a total jerk in the team to attract attention from the manager, but that didn’t get me anywhere either.
Finally, I went back to the “Interactions” menu and tried a different approach. I focused on improving my performance, hitting home runs, and making great plays. After a few games, my agent called me! We had a conversation, but still, there was no direct option to request a trade. The agent just talked about my performance and future prospects. It felt like I was making progress, but not in the direction I wanted.
I kept playing, and my stats improved significantly. I even tried to trigger specific events, thinking they might unlock a trade option. But honestly, it felt like I was going in circles. Even with the conversations with the agent and good performance on the field, there was just no clear way to request a trade.
So, after all that, I realized that requesting a trade in MLB The Show 24 isn’t as straightforward as it used to be in the older games. It’s kind of a bummer. If you’re like me and hoping to switch teams, it looks like you’re stuck where you are. At least for now. Maybe there’s a hidden way or an update in the future, but for now, it seems impossible.
