A number of future stars are making their way into Diamond Dynasty for MLB The Show. In just the past few days, MLB The Show 20 revealed some of the players that will be available in two programs. One of those is The Future Looks Bright 1. The other is Team Affinity Stage 2. Here’s what we know so far about these two aspects of the game.

They are the Seattle Mariners’ SP Logan Gilbert (86 OVR), LA Dodgers’ SP Gavin Lux (90 OVR), and Philadelphia Phillies’ 3B Alec Bohm (95 OVR).
As seen in the teaser video clip above, earnings these players will require racking up the wins. There will be different rewards for every five wins using a team in this mode built using specific criteria.

MLB The Show 20 Team Affinity Stage 2 coming April 24
In MLB The Show 20, Team Affinity Stage 2 will arrive on Friday, April 24. Each of the 30 baseball teams will have new rewards including a specific Future Stars Player. For the Chicago White Sox, The Show revealed it will be a 91 overall Dane Dunning in the video below. That was an early tease as more players will be revealed beginning Tuesday, April 21.
Team Affinity involves completing Missions, Collections, Moments, and March to October. Through each of these, gamers can acquire different rewards. For example, these might include the team’s stadium, their players, MLB The Show Stubs, packs, and player cards.
So for example, the Chicago White Sox currently have their stadium at 5 Team Affinity points. There are four Live Series Players at 10, a Universal Profile Icon at 15, 2000 Stubs at 20, and Prospect Zack Collins at 25. So the new rewards including the Dane Dunning future star card above will be added into what’s currently available as of Friday when Team Affinity Stage 2 goes live.
Based on MLB The Show’s Twitter retweets, various YouTube or Twitch gamers will help reveal different MLB The Show 20 Team Affinity 2 prospects in the coming week. Keep an eye on that Twitter and those particular gamers to get a first look at the new future stars coming to the mode.
