#2 - Hunter Renfroe

The Finest Series Hunter Renfroe is one of the most underrated cards in MLB The Show 23. This could be a result of Renfroe also being one of the most underrated players in the MLB, perhaps because he has been a journeyman in his career, but Renfroe has always had some of the most raw power in baseball.

The hard-hitting outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels' card has an uppercut swing animation, meaning he can lift the ball with his maxed-out power ratings against both righties and lefties. As showcased this season with the Angels, Renfroe can launch bombs as far as the rest of them.

#3 - Adalberto Mondesi

The oft-injured switch-hitting shortstop of the Boston Red Sox may be a better asset on the video than in real life. His 98 OVR Flashback Series card comes with a choppy swing animation that, on the surface, seems ineffective. However, if harnessed correctly, it can be a cheat code. Many call Mondesi a glitch, while fantasy baseball fans call him infuriating.

"The MLB The Show glitch himself, Adalberto Mondesi, is joining the Red Sox" - @collin8915

A speed demon on the base paths, Mondesi could be the difference between a win and a loss, with his switch-hitting ability coming in handy.
