Legends of the Franchise Program Breakdown

In a banner day for Diamond Dynasty content, we’re getting one of the best content drops of all-time when factoring everything into the equation. Starting off, we have the new Legends of the Franchise Program that delivers 30 new Faces of the Franchise in the newest Featured Program in MLB The Show 22. This also means the Back to Old School Program has finished up, so let’s get into all the new goodies.

  • Faces of the Franchise Steve Finley
  • Faces of the Franchise Todd Helton
  • Faces of the Franchise Don Sutton
  • Faces of the Franchise Tony Gwynn
  • Faces of the Franchise Willie McCovey

The big thing to note with these new Faces of the Franchise cards is there’s more positional flexibility than you would expect. What pitchers are maybe worth using will take some time to shake out, but if you know you like certain swings, SDS is giving you the chance to squeeze some of these guys into lineups when they otherwise might be a little hard to find room for right now. Jorge Posada and Hank Aaron highlight that group of players who have more flexibility than expected, but it’s not limited to just the two of them since someone like Pudge also get a 2B secondary position.

All in all, there are still haves and have nots within this group of 30 players, but you’ll be able to snag three of the five players from each division before having to go to the marketplace for everyone else.
