MLB The Show 25 player ratings are not static. Every once in a while, the developers will adjust the player’s score up or down, or even upgrade gold cards to Diamond cards. Every player whose OVR is increased will have a higher value in the free market, and betting on which players will get the increase and making a profit is also one of the fun things for players.
