The race to the top has been a three-faced battle involving New York heavily. Both the Yankees and Mets have a representative each, with power hitters Aaron Jude and Juan Soto having overall ratings of 99. Dodgers’ Shohei Ohtani, who has been a cover athlete on one previous occasion, is the third name on the top.

The rest of the names on the list are pretty predictable as far as the numbers are concerned. The numbers drop off slightly after the top 3, as Marte, Trout, and Witt Jr. are all rated at 96. It’s safe to assume that all 20 names on this list will be amazing athletes to enjoy in MLB The Show 25.
The ratings mentioned here will be part of the offline mode, as Diamond Dynasty will follow a different system altogether. The overall ratings in Diamond Dynasty will be lower, and the curve will increase gradually over the entire year. Plenty of offline modes will also be available if you want to enjoy the athletes in their prime.
