Last year, SDS revealed Shohei Ohtani as the game's cover player for the 2022 version. The 2022 version of the game was released on April 5, 2022.

The game's most recent version could be launched around the same time. According to sources, fans will find out the cover athlete of the game's 2023 installment on Monday.

Who could be on the cover of MLB The Show 23?

This year, there are several great candidates for the cover face of MLB The Show 23.

It could be Aaron Judge, who broke the American League and New York Yankees franchise records for home runs in a single season. Another early favorite to appear on the cover is Julio Rodriguez, who made a splash during his first season.

Miguel Cabrera, a future Hall of Famer, could be chosen as he enters his final season in the major leagues. The same might be said of Albert Pujols, who just announced his retirement after a career that saw him hit 700 home runs. Yadier Molina, who played alongside Pujols for the St. Louis Cardinals, also retired and could be a popular choice.

Bryce Harper, who led the Philadelphia Phillies to an unlikely World Series victory, is also a strong contender. The NL MVP winner, Paul Goldschmidt, would also make a fantastic cover athlete.
