1. Subway Series Program Rewards
The main rewards available from the Subway Series Program are:
99 OVR Mike Piazza, C, Mets
99 OVR Derek Jeter, SS, Yankees
99 OVR Mike Mussina, SP, Yankees
99 OVR John Franco, RP, Mets
These four cards are the primary targets for players working through the Program. They can also fit naturally into Yankees, Mets, or Subway Series-themed lineups.
2. Complete the Subway Series Conquest First
The Subway Series Conquest should be your first priority because it provides 50 Program Points on its own. This makes it the biggest single source of progress in the Program.
While completing the map, you can also earn additional rewards such as packs and a Vault Choice Pack. This means the Conquest is valuable even if your main goal is simply unlocking the four 99 OVR players.
Completing it early also gives you a large amount of progress before you begin the smaller objectives.
3. Finish the Subway Series Moment
After completing the Conquest, move on to the Subway Series Moment. This objective features a historic Mets moment involving Mike Piazza.
The Moment should not take long to complete, making it an easy source of additional Program progress. There is little reason to leave this objective unfinished while working toward the reward track.
4. Complete the Yankees and Mets Missions
The remaining objectives focus on Yankees and Mets players. These include:
Earn 2,000 PXP with Yankees players
Record 10 hits with Yankees players
Record 10 strikeouts with Yankees players
Earn 2,000 PXP with Mets players
Record 10 hits with Mets players
Record 10 strikeouts with Mets players
There are also Subway Series objectives involving both teams, including 16 total bases and two home runs.
The important part is that these missions can be worked on together during normal Diamond Dynasty games.
5. Best Way to Finish the Program Quickly
Build a Diamond Dynasty lineup containing eligible Yankees and Mets players before starting your normal games. This allows you to work toward several missions simultaneously.
For example, Yankees hitters can earn PXP while collecting hits, total bases, and home runs. Mets players can make similar progress toward their objectives. Pitchers can also contribute toward the strikeout requirements.
This approach saves time because one game can advance multiple missions at once.
6. What About 99 OVR Jorge Posada?
Jorge Posada is another 99 OVR Yankees catcher associated with the current Chase Pack 26 content. However, he is not one of buy MLB Stubs the four main Subway Series Program rewards.
If your goal is to complete the Subway Series Program and unlock Piazza, Jeter, Mussina, and Franco, you do not need Posada.
7. Fastest Completion Order
For the most efficient route, start with the Subway Series Conquest, then complete the Subway Series Moment. After that, create a Yankees and Mets-focused lineup and play your preferred Diamond Dynasty modes while completing the remaining missions.
The key is to combine objectives instead of grinding each requirement separately. With the right lineup, PXP, hits, strikeouts, total bases, and home runs can all progress together.
Once these objectives are finished, you should be able to claim all four 99 OVR Subway Series rewards without unnecessary grinding.
