MLB The Show 26 MLB Draft Program: Rewards & how to make progress

While MLB Draft content didn’t arrive on time in MLB The Show on July 11, it did ultimately hit the game hours after Day 1 concluded. The Program includes a 98 OVR Grady Emerson as the final reward, and this one should be easy to complete.

How to make progress

Here are the tasks for this program:

Complete MLB Draft Conquest (100 pts.)
Complete five Moments (30 pts. – 6 pts. each)
2026 Draft Series Missions:
- Tally 2,026 PXP with MLB Draft players (10 pts.)
- Tally 15 hits with MLB Draft players (10 pts.)
- Tally seven extra-base hits with MLB Draft players (10 pts.)
- Tally 10 innings with MLB Draft players (10 pts.)
- Tally 15 strikeouts with MLB Draft players (10 pts.)
3-Inning Game Moments (40 pts. – 20 pts. each)

This program can be completed in its entirety just through the MLB Draft Conquest. Completing it unlocks an MLB Draft Choice Pack, one that is repeatable. So, that one should probably be a priority.

Plus, a couple of things to note. One, none of these cards can be locked into the 2026 All-Star Series Collection. These are instead part of their own collection. Collect 29 MLB Draft cards and unlock a voucher for the next Legends & Flashbacks reward on July 26.

Two, Roch Cholowsky, Jackson Flora, Vahn Lackey, Tyler Bell, and Derek Curiel, among others, are in the MLB Draft pack.
