At just 27 years old, Seiya Suzuki has been lighting up Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball league for years and is a 5-time NPB All-Star, 6-time NPB Best Nine Award winner, and 5-time NPB Golden Glove Award winner.
After signing with the Chicago Cubs on March 18, 2022, Suzuki made his Opening Day debut on April 7, 2022 and snagged his first MLB hit in the fifth inning of that game.
He's now finally available as a Live Series card in MLB The Show 22 and is a part of the live rosters which are updated to have him in the Chicago Cubs lineup.
