If you unlink the account you get your progress. What they should be more clear about is that Whalen you link accounts, you more or less make a new account, and that's why the progress is wiped
I think it has to do with the order in which you do things, right? I could be wrong, but I think if you create an MLB The Show account and then link a console account, The Show account is dominant and shows no progress. If you create an MLB The Show account, then log out and log back into your console account and link The Show account from there, then the console account is dominant and your progress remains. I think that's what I did when setting up mine and it all worked out fine. I have not tried linking my Xbox account yet though. I think I'll wait until the servers aren't actively on fire.
You are correct. I learned the hard way that there is an order of operations to go with. In my case, this year I am playing on Xbox, so I should have created a Show account and first paired it with my PS account and then after added my Xbox account. At that point I pick using XBox as my primary going forward.
I didn't do that and it showed I had lost everything, but all I had to do was change the primary account on the website to Xbox and all of my progress on Xbox showed again. I lost 30 minutes or so figuring it out, but at least I didn't have to start over.
**how did you set as primary account ? **
