On the mound, Peter Lambert works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 95 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 95 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 96 Velocity, 89 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Peter Lambert's arsenal: 4-Seam Fastball (S), Sweeper (S), Cutter (S), Sinker (S), and Circle Change (A). 4 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 Sinker, so the two share a release look. Its 96 mph Sinker adds a velocity bonus on top. 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, Peter Lambert currently buys for about 13,988 stubs, with sell orders near 12,653 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has climbed roughly 8%. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Peter Lambert earns an OpScore of 90.4 on Legend difficulty, ranking #481 among all cards and #78 among Starting Pitchers.
