Steven Cruz — Bronze 72 OVR Closer Overview
Steven Cruz is a Bronze 72 OVR Closer card for the Free Agents, part of the Live set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in April 2026.
On the mound, Steven Cruz works with a 3-pitch arsenal led by a 98 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 94 mph Cutter. His pitching ratings include 95 Velocity, 70 Control, and 78 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Steven Cruz's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), and Cutter (S). 3 of them grade S-tier, which is what separates a genuine out-pitch mix from a deep-but-flat arsenal. Its strongest tunnel pairing is the Cutter off the Slider, so the two share a release look. Arsenal grades are the same at every difficulty — unlike a hitter's OpScore, a pitch mix does not re-weight as you climb.
On the Diamond Dynasty market, Steven Cruz currently buys for about 27 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has fallen roughly 7%. Its quick-sell value of 25 stubs sits at or above the sell price, making it quick-sell viable. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Steven Cruz earns an OpScore of 62.1 on Legend difficulty, ranking #2159 among all cards and #104 among Closers.
Live Series cards like Steven Cruz's are the ones Diamond Radar scores: it reads a player's real MLB production and predicts what the next roster update will do to the card — the predicted rating, the tier jump, and how likely the upgrade is. Ratings only move at a roster update, and not every Live Series card is scored in a given window. Model v11: of the 358 cards it scored 70 or above in its 3 graded updates, 69% were upgraded, against 17% by chance: 4.1× better.
