Luke Weaver — Gold 81 OVR Relief Pitcher Overview
Luke Weaver is a Gold 81 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Pirates, 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, Luke Weaver works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 95 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 92 mph Cutter. His pitching ratings include 79 Velocity, 71 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Luke Weaver's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Cutter (S), and Circle Change (A). 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. Velocity works against the card here — its 79 mph 4-Seam Fastball is slow enough to cost it in the arsenal score. 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, Luke Weaver currently buys for about 669 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Its quick-sell value of 600 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. Luke Weaver earns an OpScore of 68.2 on Legend difficulty, ranking #1367 among all cards and #124 among Relief Pitchers.
