The Season Awards program has arrived at MLB The Show 24 and it introduces some good cards, while also giving players a chance to earn some packs.
However, the MLB The Show community is not thrilled about this program, as many of the best cards of the program are only available in packs you can't earn, making Diamond Dynasty more pay-to-win.
Latest: Season 3 Awards Drop 1 Program Arrived at Diamond Dynasty!
Season 3 of MLB The Show 24 is here, and so is the Season 3 Awards Drop 1 Program, which brings four decent cards, and some great rewards as well.
The cards players can earn by completing the program are the following:
- 93 OVR Niko Kavadas
- 93 OVR Addison Barger
- 93 OVR J.T. Realmuto
- 95 OVR Yainer Diaz
By completing the Season 3 Awards Drop 1 Program players will also earn four Show packs, one Balling Is A Habit pack, and a Headliners pack.
The Season 3 Awards Drop 1 choice pack also arrived at Diamond Dynasty and brought five great cards.
- 94 OVR Jesse Winker
- 94 OVR Bowden Francis
- 94 OVR Francisco Alvarez
- 96 OVR Raisel Iglesias
- 96 OVR Jhonkensy Noel
All of these cards are better than the ones players can earn in the Season 3 Awards Drop 1 Program, except for the 95 OVR Yainer Diaz.
Unfortunately, users can only earn these cards by buying the Season 3 Awards Drop 1 choice pack, which costs 30K stubs, and is limited to five packs per user. This means the cards are behind a paywall, which is something all players hate to hear.
What is the Season Awards Program
The Season Awards program offers players the chance to earn some good cards and many packs by completing challenges
This program replaced the Topps Now Program, with Topps Now cards now being part of the Season Awards program. That means the Season Award program will release new cards every week.
Each Season Awards program will introduce better cards. By the end of each MLB The Show 24 season, the cards introduced by the program will all be around the 99 OVR mark.
You can take a look at all the Season 1 and 2 Awards Programs below.

- 86 OVR Daniel Schneemann

Players are not happy to see this return, as the last season 1 Awards programs had done a great job including better cards than the choice packs. However, it seems MLB The Show is going back to the original formula, where players need to pay to have access to the best players in the promo.

- 97 OVR Matt Vierling
- 97 OVR Nick Gonzales
- 99 OVR Jeremiah Estrada
- 99 OVR Marcell Ozuna
The MLB The Show Community is Disappointed
MLB The Show fans have some strong words about this program. Not because it is inherently bad, but because the best cards are locked behind a paywall.
If players want to get their hands on most of the 99 OVR cards the program introduces, which have some astonishing attributes, they will need to buy the Season 1 Awards choice packs, which cost 30K Stubs each.
Furthermore, most packs only contain one player pick and there is a purchase limit of five packs per user, so players will need to pray they get one of the good cards.
This makes Diamond Dynasty more of a pay-to-win mode, which the community really doesn't appreciate.
However, the developers heard the community's criticism and have started introducing good cards in the program, instead of just locking them behind a paywall.
So, despite its turbulent start, the Season Awards program is currently on a good path.
