This week, baseball fans will be in for a treat with the release of MLB The Show 23. The year since the last installment has been long enough for San Diago Studios to improve every aspect of the game. The game is not only a high-tech baseball simulation, but also a reliable source of player ratings for fans. But who are the highest ranked players in the game? Who are the new additions to Club 99 in MLB The Show 23? Let’s find out.
All Club 99 players in MLB The Show 23
Club 99 refers to players who have received an overall rating of 99 on The Show. These ratings depend on a number of indicators, but the performance of the players in the previous season plays a huge role. Here are five players who made it to the 99 Club.
- Jacob DeGrom: Texas Ranger
- Mike Trout: LA Angels
- Shohei Otani: LA Angels
- Paul Goldschmidt: St. Louis Cardinals
- Aaron Judge: New York Yankees
Each of these players had one of the best individual performances this season. LA Angels fans can now boast not one, but two 99-rated players. Aaron Judge’s record-breaking 62 home runs finally propelled him to the acclaimed 99 club. Jacob DeGrom can be proud of that performance last season and is now regarded as one of the best clean pitchers in the game. With the National League MVP title and seventh All-Star appearance, Paul Goldschmidt should have received 99 ratings. But there were a few great players who just didn’t make the list. Players like Justin Verlander, Corbin Burns and Max Scherzer were just embarrassed to get a 99 rating. A good season is what they need to get into an exclusive club.
