U4GM Breaks Down the MLB The Show 26 XP Voucher

Andrew736

Ted Williams gives Diamond Dynasty players a few ways to build around a left-handed bat in MLB The Show 26. His 99 OVR Milestone card is the big attraction, though the 92 All-Star and 97 Summer versions might suit your plans too. You can work through rewards or use MLB 26 stubs on the Community Marketplace, depending on which card you want and how much time you've got.

Getting the Milestone Card

The 9th Inning XP Path offers a Boss Choice Pack at 275,000 XP. Open it and you'll choose either Milestone Ted Williams or Signature Chipper Jones, not both. Along the way, you'll also pick up 99 OVR Smokey Joe Williams at 47,500 XP and 99 OVR Willie Wells at 160,000 XP. Those rewards don't affect your boss choice. The path is listed as ending on November 20, 2026, so take a look at the in-game timer before settling in for a long run.

Making Your Games Count

Start by checking the missions you can combine in the same game. Fifteen hits earn 4,000 XP, while 500 parallel XP with Cornerstone Series players earns 5,500 XP. There are also 7,500 XP rewards for 20 extra-base hits with 2026 Postseason Series players and 25 strikeouts with The Show Classics Series pitchers. That's 24,500 XP across four missions. Collecting both 8th Inning bosses can provide an optional 30,000 XP voucher, but you don't need it for the pack. If progress stalls, check the required series, statistic and game mode.

What Williams Brings to Your Lineup

The 99 Milestone card starts in left field and can also play right. At the plate, it has 125 contact against both pitching sides, plus 125 power against righties and 103 against lefties. Add 125 vision and you've got a hitter who can handle either matchup. His 67 speed means you'll probably want a quicker player in center, though. Try Williams near the top or middle of your order, with a right-handed bat nearby. Don't force power swings every time up. Wait for a pitch you can reach, and use batting practice if your timing feels off.

Picking the Right Version

The 92 All-Star card has appeared in selected packs and on the marketplace. The 97 Summer card comes from collecting 21 eligible Summer players, with five available through the associated program. Check what's still available before committing resources. The 99 Milestone card can also appear on the marketplace, so compare its price with your XP progress. If you decide to buy MLB 26 stubs, check the game's rules and make sure the listing matches the exact Williams card you want.
