Nelson Cruz MLB The Show 20 Player Program: How to Unlock His Silver Slugger Card
A brand new Nelson Cruz MLB The Show 20 Player Program arrived in Diamond Dynasty as part of their new 7th Inning content. With that, gamers are able to add a new Diamond level card for the veteran MLB star to their roster. We’ve got the full details about the new card including how to unlock it and other rewards for your Diamond Dynasty team.
Nelson Cruz MLB The Show 20 Silver Slugger
The new Nelson Cruz MLB The Show 20 card is a Silver Slugger item with a 93 overall rating. It features Cruz from his days on the Seattle Mariners. He’s got Diamond Hitting on this one. Amongst his key attributes are 89 Contact vs. Right, 125 Contact vs. Left, 104 Power vs. Right, and 114 Power vs. Left.
Cruz won’t bring stellar defense or quickness to your outfield, as he has just a 53 for Fielding and just 41 Speed. He boasts a 92 Arm Strength with 70 Accuracy, though. Here’s a look at all of the attributes for the right-fielder.
Quirks on the card include Hitting Machine, Bomber, Cannon, and Pressure Cooker for the former Mariners star.
How to complete the Cruz Player Program
The Nelson Cruz MLB The Show 20 Player Program is available inside the Diamond Dynasty mode. Scroll over to Programs and choose Player Programs where you’ll see Nelson Cruz right next to All-Timers Babe Ruth.
To get Nelson Cruz’s new card, you need to achieve a total of 50 Player Programs (aka Points). You’ll get a combination of these through completing the specific in-game Missions and Cruz’s career Moments. Here they all are:
Missions:
- Online: Tally Hits With Mariners players (10 total) +10
- Online: Tally XBH with Outfielders (three total) +10
- Play vs. CPU: Defeat Mariners on All-Star or Higher +10
- Exchange Outfielders (total value 10,000) +10
Moments:
- Walk-off Slam (Hit 1 HR, Veteran level) +8
- Postseason Masher (Tally 6 Hits, Tally 2 XBH on Veteran) +9
- Cruz Cranks Homer (Tally 2 XBH on Veteran) +9
- The Broomstick (Tally 6 Total Base Hits) +8
- 400th Career Home Run (Tally 1 HR on ) +8
As seen above, the Career Moments should be easy to go through and rrack up 42 points. After that, go against the CPU as the Mariners with your Diamond Dynasty team. Just make sure you’re on All-Star difficulty or higher.
Along the way, you’ll rack up other rewards such as MLB The Show Stubs, XP, and Mariners Live Series packs. However, the big prize is the Nelson Cruz card, especially for fans of the Silver Slugger.
