MLB The Show 17: How to Get Called Up in RTTS
Tip 3: Play and Train Well
This one should go out without saying, but it’s still worth saying anyway. Obviously, the better you play, and intelligently allocate your training points to improve your overall rating, the better chance you have of getting called up. Training points are your lifeblood, so you need to make sure you’re doing everything you can to get as much as possible.
At its most basic level, the better your player is in RTTS, the more likely it is that you will be called up because if you have an overall rating higher than someone else on the next roster in the same position, at some point you’re probably going to take their place. Sure, luck does play into it as well, if someone above you gets hurt, but still, you want your player to be as highly rated as possible.
The most important factor for achieving that goal is to intelligently allocate your training points. Try not to waste a single point if you can. If you’re goal is to be a speedy, athletic shortstop that steals a bunch of bases, don’t be waste points on your left handed power. The opposite applies as well. If you’re a power hitter, you probably don’t need to worry about drag bunting too much.
Sure, there’s an element of playing to your strengths whatever your position is, and you might be naturally inclined to spread your stats out evenly, but don’t do that. Focus in on a niche, and spend your points to elevate that specific skill set as high as possible.
