One of the more helpful threads that gets updated each year by the community is the list of generic stances/motions for hitters and pitchers in MLB The Show. This list fluctuates year to year but generally doesn’t have to start from scratch. It is back now with MLB The Show 23 and is getting close to being totally filled out. This is also a helpful list for Road to the Show and if you’re looking for a specific stance/motion you want for your player, and it’s obviously also a big helper for CAP creators out there.
OS user Baseballking888 is keeping the list updated on the forums as of now. They update the list as any changes are mentioned or the unknown stances/motions are filled out. Below you will find the current known lists as of now.
