Many new MLB The Show 21 Franchise Mode changes have been revealed in tonight's Feature Premiere developer stream, bringing huge improvements all around!
Let's dive into all the new things in MLB The Show 21 Franchise Mode.
Trade Metric and Player Metric
Franchise Mode will feature two brand new systems for evaluating players in MLB The Show 21 - the Trade Metric, and the Player Metric.
The Trade Metric has been built to take into account a player's attributes, contract, and performances. This will then be used to evaluate players much more accurately for trades, but it isn't the only system used to evaluate players in MLB The Show 21 Franchise mode.
Pairing with the new Trade Metric, the Player Metric will also be a new evaluation tool coming to Franchise Mode this year.
This system will give you a player value beyond just what someone will net in trades, and takes into account their performances and attributes to set a dynamic value for your team.
