How do you reach 50 points?

The moments are the clean place to start. Their point values are 3, 3, then six 4-point moments. That is 30 points before you build a team for the PXP missions.

The remaining 20 points come from four five-point missions. Two use a single historical Wild Card team, while the other two accept players from the teams named in the current AL and NL Wild Card matchups.

Mission Requirement Points
Marlins 1,997 PXP with Marlins players 5
Rangers 2,023 PXP with Rangers players 5
2026 AL Wild Card teams 2,026 PXP with Red Sox, Yankees, White Sox or Astros players 5
2026 NL Wild Card teams 2,026 PXP with Phillies, Braves, Cubs or Padres players 5
Mission total 20

Each mission is listed for Ranked, Ranked Co-op, Battle Royale, Events, Weekend Classic, Play vs CPU, Mini Seasons, Conquest and Diamond Quest. The catalog marks all four as one-time tasks.

The exact Stanton route

  1. Finish all eight Retro Wild Card moments for 30 points.
  2. Build around Marlins and Rangers players for the two historical-team PXP tasks.
  3. Add players from the listed 2026 AL and NL Wild Card teams while you finish those two PXP tasks.
  4. Claim Stanton when the total reaches 50 points.

That route uses every listed one-time task and does not require a purchase. Stanton has 120 power against left-handed pitching and 125 against right-handed pitching in the catalog, with left and right field eligibility. Those are card-screen attributes, not a prediction about in-game performance.
