    With the ALCS and NLCS underway SCEA has rolled out two new Missions in MLB The Show 16's Diamond Dynasty mode. Owners of the Josh Donaldson and Andrew Miller Rookie Cards will have the new challenges unlocked in order to obtain their current Live Series Cards. Andrew Miller requires 6 wins (he was a starter as a rookie for Detroit). His Rookie Card can currently be purchased from the Marketplace for under 2,000 Stubs. The Live Series Card that would be earned has a value right now of ab...

    Here at the All-Star break of the MLB season it made sense to go position-by-position with a look at the players who have excelled the most in MLB The Show 16's Diamond Dynasty mode after 3 1/2 months of action. Along with @MLBTheShow_Tips and @ThatSportsGamer's submissions it's a chance to identify players who may be worth targeting for your own team! Among the selections are Corey Seager, J.D. Martinez, Daniel Murphy, Rich Hill, Carter Capps, Prime Ichiro Suzuki, and All-Star Game MVP E...

    Three new All-Star themed packs have arrived in MLB The Show 16's Diamond Dynasty mode for a limited time. As is the case with any packs it's a gamble to buy them, and these pricey ones offer no guarantees of pulling something worthwhile. Regardless though of whether or not as an individual you purchase them the introduction of the new packs affects everyone. The influx of Gold and Diamond cards has resulted in prices plummeting in the marketplace - some players reached all-time lows yes...

    While there are unfortunately no new Flashback cards being introduced this week, the latest limited-time Diamond Dynasty card pack in MLB The Show 16 includes six players - three of which come from a pool comprised of the best performers from the month of May. At 2,500 Stubs each, are these Players of the Month packs a good investment vs standard packs of spending in the Marketplace? Here's a look at what I got with the four that were purchased....

    With the fifth limited-time pack of the regular season, MLB The Show 16 is offering up an opportunity at three unspecified players who have surprised early in the season, higher chance of Golds/Diamonds, and five new cards added to the player pool. The pack goes for 3,000 Coins and includes six player cards. The new cards introduced with the pack are all pitchers: Mike Scott (Legend), Sergio Romo (Postseason), Stephen Strasburg (Rookie), and Steve Cishek and Drew Smyly (Prime). Check out ...

    The fourth special pack to release during the regular season is now available for a limited time in MLB The Show 16. For 3,000 Coins it contains six player cards for a chance at some of the fastest players in the game and a “doubled chance” at Gold and Diamond cards. As with the first three packs it’s questionable whether anyone should risk their coins on these given the nature of the supposed increased odds, not having the two item cards found in standard packs, and being three t...

    The third special pack to release during the regular season is now available for a limited time in MLB The Show 16. For 3,000 Coins it contains six player cards with an "increased chance" at the top performers from April plus Gold and Diamond cards. As with the first two packs it's very questionable whether anyone should risk their coins on these given the nature of the supposed increased odds, not having the two item cards found in standard packs, and being three times the price. If this...

    For the second time since the season began a special limited time card pack has been introduced to MLB The Show 16. With the pack are five new cards that enter the Diamond Dynasty pool of players, joining the 10 that made their debut last week. The smart move may be to avoid buying this "Developer's Choice" pack. The odds are not increased to an extent that makes it better than going with three regular packs. It does provide the opportunity to pull one of the new cards, however three ...
