So you wanna hang up your cleats, huh, hotshot? A Guide to MLB The Show 23 RTTS Retirement (Because the Game Won't Do It For You)
Let's face it, athlete. You've smashed dingers like they were going out of style, stolen bases with the grace of a cheetah, and struck out batters faster than they can say "existential dread at the plate." But even the greatest baseball careers gotta end sometime, right? Here's the thing: unlike real life, where your agent might throw you a fancy retirement party, MLB The Show 23 RTTS is a little...silent on the whole "graceful exit" front.
But fear not, weary slugger! This guide will be your roadmap to baseball retirement bliss (or at least, knowing how to stop playing your character).
The All-Natural Fade-Out (But It Might Take a While)
QuickTip: Copy useful snippets to a notes app.
This is the "let's see what happens" approach. Keep playing seasons, watch your age climb like a runaway fastball, and eventually, your stats might just take a nosedive. Teams might not be lining up to throw money at you anymore, and that sweet retirement might just fall into your lap. This method is perfect for those who enjoy a bit of suspense (and have a lot of free time). Just remember, baseball ain't known for its gentle goodbyes. You might end up as a pinch hitter for a team you barely recognize, yearning for the glory days.
The "I'm Done, Folks" Method (Because Silence Speaks Volumes)
Tip: Note one practical point from this post.
This option is for the decisive types. Simply stop playing your RTTS character. No contract negotiations, no dramatic goodbyes, just...silence. The game won't force you to keep going, and you can move on to pastures new (like creating a rookie who'll inevitably eclipse your achievements). It's a clean break, but maybe a tad unsatisfying for those who crave a little closure.

The "I Need Stats, Now!" Method (Not Recommended, But We See You)
QuickTip: Read line by line if it’s complex.
Alright, alright, we know some of you just want to pump up your stats and call it a career. There are methods involving fiddling with difficulty settings and stadiums, but honestly? It's kind of like putting ketchup on a perfectly good steak. Focus on enjoying the journey, buddy. Besides, inflated stats won't impress anyone as much as a well-rounded career (even if it ends with you yelling at the TV because the CPU keeps making you bunt).
Tip: Each paragraph has one main idea — find it.
