In this episode, we’re taking a deep dive into MLB The Show 25 and we’re not just talking about new features and shiny graphics. From tighter hitting mechanics to a smarter, more punishing pitching system, this year’s game is all about nuance and challenge. I break down what’s working, what’s frustrating, and where this game sits in the lineup of The Show’s legacy.

We get into everything:

Hitting that finally rewards precision

Pitching mechanics that force real strategy

Fielding, baserunning, and new sliding tech

Franchise mode improvements (hello, better scouting!)

Diamond Dynasty’s eternal battle with microtransactions

Road to the Show's story tweaks and grind factor

Whether you're a vet of the series or considering jumping in for the first time, I’ve got the full scouting report to help you decide if it’s worth stepping up to the plate this year.
