In *MLB The Show 25* Road to the Show, you start as a high school player with big dreams and even bigger decisions. As you gear up for a state title run, scouts from top colleges and major league teams are watching your every move.

The choice ultimately boils down to personal preference. If you've spent countless seasons grinding through the minors in previous games, heading to college might be refreshing. The allure of being the #1 overall pick and entering the pros as a more developed player is a significant draw. However, if you enjoy the challenge of climbing from the bottom, going pro right away could be more rewarding.
The Escapist chose the college route, enticed by the chance to be the top pick and the promise of a unique experience. Plus, the game fast-forwards to your third year during a championship run, so you won't be away from professional baseball for long. It's a way to enjoy the best of both worlds without a long detour.
