Nick Nastrini — Common 61 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview
Nick Nastrini is a Common 61 OVR Starting Pitcher 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, Nick Nastrini works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 94 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 86 mph Circle Change. His pitching ratings include 71 Velocity, 54 Control, and 88 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Nick Nastrini's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Circle Change (A), and 12-6 Curve (B). 2 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 4-Seam Fastball off the Slider, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 71 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, Nick Nastrini currently buys for about 7 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Its quick-sell value of 5 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. Nick Nastrini earns an OpScore of 51.9 on Legend difficulty, ranking #2583 among all cards and #528 among Starting Pitchers.
