MLB The Show 19 Headliners Packs: Diamond Mark Prior, Joe Torre Cards Now Available

Baseball season is officially underway in the major leagues and for MLB The Show 19 gamers. As opening day recently got going, the baseball video game is beginning to roll out special events, challenges, and player cards. We got our first MLB The Show 19 Headliners Packs in the game with Diamond cards for All-Star players Mark Prior and Joe Torre.

MLB The Show 19 Headliners: All-Star Flashback Mark Prior

Mark Prior’s star burned out way too early. The hard-throwing right-hander made a huge impact in his five-year career, especially in 2003. Prior owned the National League for a glimmering moment and had the look of a player that would be around for 10 years or more. Unfortunately, arm problems cut Prior’s career short.

Nevertheless, he still had a great career, albeit a short one.

In 2003, Prior finished 18-6 with a 2.43 ERA. He struck out 245 batters and was named to the NL All-Star team that season. Those numbers alone earned Prior a card rating of 90.

MLB The Show 19 Headliners: All-Star Legend Joe Torre

For fans and gamers alike, especially under 40, Joe Torre may be just thought of as a successful manager. While Torre did have great success as the skipper of the New York Yankees, he was also one of the best power hitters of his time.

Torre smashed 36 home runs, drove in 101 and finished with a .315 average. Those numbers are great for a player during any generation in the big leagues. What is even more impressive, in 1971 Torre drove in 137 RBI and finished the year with a .363 average. Torre’s 1966 card on MLB The Show is rated at a solid 93.

Headliners packs are available in The Show Shop. They’ll cost 7,500 MLB 19 Stubs each and include one guaranteed Silver player and three other player items. They also hold a chance at the two Diamond cards mentioned above.

The odds of obtaining Headliners packs aren’t too bad according to MLB The Show. Just remember, the better you do at the game, the quicker you earn rewards!
