MLB The Show 21 update makes a change to Franchise, fixes Xbox invite issue
A new update is now available for MLB The Show 21 that fixes a number of bugs and makes some changes.
To start with, the option to sign Free Agents in the off-season through the player search menu has been removed due to it occasionally causing players to be duplicated. Additionally, a confirmation selection box has been added for when players select duplicate no-sell cards from Choice Packs.
As for bug fixes, a crash that could occur when pinch hitting for an out of position player in Manage Full Game has been addressed and an issue that caused game invites to fail on Xbox linked accounts should no longer occur. Read the full patch notes below:
