While there’s no “wrong” way to build your pitch arsenal, there are definitely certain synergies between Archtypes and pitches, so I definitely encourage you to experiment - especially early on in your Road to the Show career. These serve as the core foundation and can have a natural synergy with your pitch selection. When creating your pitcher in MLB The Show 22, you’ll want to select the Archtypes that fit your pitch style. Of course, you’ll want to be careful spreading yourself too thin as you can only train so much throughout the season and select pitch types and other stats to increase. The good news is you can have multiple Loadouts with different pitch types in each, so you can easily swap between styles in each game. This is a solid core group of pitches but, of course, you can personalize it to whatever fits the type of pitch style you want to play with. When you begin your career, you’ll probably start off with the three most basic pitches: fastball, curveball and changeup. MLB The Show 22 does a pretty good job of breaking down what each pitch in the game does along with the type of movement it has. It’s as easy as navigating to the right side of the screen and selecting your pitches, of which you can have up to five. You can simply do so in the “Loadout” portion of the My Ballplayer menu when in the clubhouse (My Player). Unlike last year’s game, it’s much easier to change your selection of pitches. If you’re looking to make it into the Big Leagues as a pitcher, you’re going to need a successful repertoire of pitches. MLB The Show 22 is out now and this year you are able to create multiple ballplayers in Road to the Show (RTTS).
