It’s hard to believe that the baseball season is already well underway. That means it’s time for MLB The Show to kick off the release of the first Monthly Awards program. The April edition is here, and we’re here to cover the do’s and don’ts as we walk you through the program and break down the rewards.
How to Complete April Monthly Awards ProgramFor anyone new to MLB The Show, Monthly Awards is a program that uses MLB’s real-life relationship with the Topps trading card company to celebrate standout moments in the season. A new set of moments will be released every week, and at the end of the month, you will be able to trade in all of the cards you have earned in challenges to earn a ‘Lightning’ Monthly Awards player that matches the top cards in the game when it’s released.
This year is a bit different. Instead of releasing sets of moments and then releasing a program at the end of the month, Sony San Diego has elected to simply update the program as new cards become available. in order to advance past the first stage, you need 17 Topps Now cards to advance from stage 1 to stage 2. In order to get these cards, you need to complete 25 different moments, and once you have completed all of them, you’ll have collected the first 52 program points.
It is critical to the program that you do not sell these cards. You CAN sell them if you are desperate for Stubs but if you want Monthly Awards players you will need to acquire another copy of that card. One final time, we insist that you do not get rid of these cards. Now let’s get into those rewards.
