The 2022 baseball season is over and MLB The Show 22 has paid tribute to Bryce Harper’s aura and the 162 games that were with Finest Of The Franchise. The featured program draws attention to the players who dominated Major League Baseball, and in the most Team Affinity way possible, it taps into today’s top stars (Max Scherzer, Manny Machado), rising vets (Xander Bogaerts), and the first-timers (Nico Hoerner, Nestor Cortes) who remain loyal to the name on the front of their jerseys.
The 2022 Finest Program features a number of 99 OVR player items representing all 30 MLB squads as well as retro uniforms, themed choice packs (Tool Box, Always Intense), and another series of 30 Finest Classics–including MLB 19’s Ketel Marte, MLB 20’s Devin Williams, and MLB 21’s Jesse Winker and Jorge Polanco. There’s also a Finest 2022 Collection, a Finest Of The Franchise Event with Finest Jacob deGrom, October’s Goats And Ghouls Program, the 2022 Postseason Program with 99 Trea Turner and 99 Harrison Bader, and an all-new Chase Pack Set 5 featuring Finest Corbin Burnes.
There’s even a Takashi Okazaki series Shohei Ohtani to collect and more Milestones on the way, so here’s a guide on the best 2022 Finest Of The Franchise adds for theme teams and the offseason.
