Question 1

What is the best parallel mod for right fielders in MLB The Show 26?

Accepted Answer

The best parallel mod for right fielders depends on your PXP tier. At Diamond (10,000 PXP), Fielding is the top choice for 86% of cards. At Gold (3,000 PXP), Fielding Speed leads at 87%. At Silver (500 PXP), Fielding is recommended for 98% of cards. These recommendations are based on ShowZone's Meta Overall analysis of all 424 cards eligible at RF.

Question 2

What is the best Diamond parallel mod for right fielders in MLB The Show 26?

Accepted Answer

Fielding is the recommended Diamond mod for 86% of right fielders (364 out of 424 cards). Diamond mods unlock at Parallel V (10,000 PXP) and provide the largest boosts in the game. The second most popular Diamond mod for RF is Fielding Power at 11%.

Question 3

What is the best Gold parallel mod for right fielders?

Accepted Answer

Fielding Speed is the most recommended Gold mod for right fielders, chosen for 87% of eligible cards. Gold mods unlock at Parallel III (3,000 PXP) and require stat milestones like hits, home runs, or strikeouts depending on the mod. Fielding is the second choice at 6%.

Question 4

What is the best Silver parallel mod for right fielders?

Accepted Answer

Fielding is the top Silver mod for right fielders at 98%. Silver mods unlock at Parallel I (500 PXP) with no stat requirements, making them the first upgrade available. While the boosts are modest, they're a quick improvement while you work toward Gold and Diamond tiers.

Question 5

Should I use a parallel mod or keep the flat parallel bonus for my RF?

Accepted Answer

Equipping a mod replaces the flat parallel bonus (+1 per level to all attributes). For RF, 5 cards actually perform better with the flat Parallel V bonus than any Diamond mod. This typically happens when a card's key attributes are already near the 125 cap, so the flat +5 to everything outperforms a specialized boost. ShowZone calculates both options and shows the "vs P5" delta so you can see which is better for each specific card.

Question 6

Which RF benefits the most from parallel mods?

Accepted Answer

Chase DeLauter (Spotlight) sees the biggest Meta Overall boost from mods at RF, gaining +10.6 Meta Overall with the Fielding Diamond mod. Cards with lower base attributes in key areas tend to benefit most because the mod boosts have more room to push ratings higher.

Question 7

How does ShowZone recommend parallel mods for right fielders?

Accepted Answer

ShowZone tests every card eligible at RF against all 36 hitter mods at each tier (Silver, Gold, Diamond). For each mod, it computes the Meta Overall — a rating that accounts for swing quality, pitcher effectiveness, defense, clutch, and other gameplay factors beyond raw attributes. The mod that produces the highest Meta Overall at RF is recommended. This runs automatically whenever player data updates.

Question 8

Can different positions recommend different mods for the same card?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A multi-position player might benefit most from a Speed mod at CF but a Contact mod at 2B, because Meta Overall weights differ by position. ShowZone calculates the best mod at each position individually. When you view a card's profile page, the recommendation reflects the position's specific weights.
