May 29 Roster Update: Minor Tweaks and Bronze Bumps
MLB The Show 26's May 29 roster update is a transactional tune-up — 31 rating changes, 75 position shifts, and 20 new cards, all aimed at keeping rosters current with real-world transactions and minor-league call-ups. No Diamond or Gold upgrades this time, but a few Bronze-tier jumps matter for budget squads and completionists.
Headliners: Sears, Brown Cross Into New Tiers
JP Sears (Padres) posted the biggest overall leap, vaulting from 63 Common to 70 Bronze — a tier-crossing upgrade that resets his quick-sell floor and should lift his market price. His Control took an eight-point hit, so he's not suddenly a rotation staple, but the Bronze bump matters if you're filling out Padres collections on the cheap.
Ben Brown (Cubs) jumped from 72 Bronze to 76 Silver, another rarity crossover that spikes value and makes him a viable back-end option for Cubs theme teams. Jordan Wicks (Cubs, 64→69) also crossed into Bronze, giving Chicago two pitching upgrades in one update.
On the downside, Bryce Miller (Mariners) dropped from 74 Silver to 68 Bronze — a tier downgrade that crashes his value and removes him from most competitive rotations.
The rest of the moves are Common-tier adjustments unlikely to move the market. ShowZone's free Roster Update Predictor flagged several of these changes before they landed — bookmark it for the next big update.
