Cade Povich

Cade Povich is a Bronze 69 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Orioles, part of the Live set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws left-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in April 2026.

On the mound, Cade Povich works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 92 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 92 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 79 Velocity, 63 Control, and 87 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Cade Povich's arsenal: 4-Seam Fastball (S), Sinker (S), Sweeper (S), Circle Change (A), and Curveball (B). 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 4-Seam Fastball off the Sinker, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 79 mph Sinker 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.

Live Series cards like Cade Povich'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. Across the season so far, 55% of the cards Radar flags go on to be upgraded, against a 26% background rate across all scored cards — 2.1× better than chance (n=1,061).
