New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on March 28, 2023) follows:
San Diego Studio released the final version of MLB The Show 23 today. The latest installment in the game series introduces the new ‘Storylines’ game mode which focuses on the Negro Leagues.
However, some are disappointed as they cannot find one of their favorite players in the game.
MLB The Show 23 ‘Fernando Tatís Jr’ not in Live Roster
According to reports (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10), multiple MLB The Show 23 players are unhappy as they are unable to find Fernando Tatís Jr in the Live Roster.
Fernando Tatís Jr was removed from MLB The Show 22 after he got suspended for consuming Clostebol. After the change, the only way to play using his character was via Rosters Vault or resetting the roster to default.
One of those affected says that they are unable to find Tatis Jr. anywhere in the game. Also, they are unable to add him to the roster.

Some claim that they will not play the game until Tatis Jr. is added back. They are now requesting the developers to bring back their favorite player to the game.
There are speculations that he might be unavailable due to the suspension made last year and he may be available once the ban is lifted.
Either way, we do hope that San Diego Studio resolves the issue where Fernando Tatís Jr is not available in MLB The Show 23 Live Roster soon.
Until then, we’ll keep tabs and update this article as and when something noteworthy comes up.
