	Must-Have Cards: Core Upgrades for Your Lineup
</p>

<p>
	This update includes three standout cards that are worth prioritizing immediately if you want real competitive improvement:
</p>

<p>
	Dustin May (96 OVR) - Reliable Ace Pitcher
</p>

<p>
	A true "plug-and-play" starter:
</p>

<p>
	Strong control and pitch mix<br />
	Extremely consistent performance<br />
	High impact on game tempo
</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>
	The strongest card in this update, but difficult to obtain:
</p>

<p>
	Locked behind Chase Pack rewards<br />

</p>

<p>
	Ideal for building a late-game core lineup.
</p>

<p>
	Mookie Betts (96 OVR) - Reliable All-Round Upgrade
</p>

<p>
	A safe and consistent pick:
</p>

<p>
	Balanced offense and defense<br />
	Very stable swing performance<br />
	Often plays above his rating
</p>

<p>
	A "no-regret" card for any lineup.

	Kyle Freeland (lack of effective pitch movement)<br />
	Ronald Acuña Jr. (underwhelming version in this update)
</p>
