Chris Roycroft — Common 60 OVR Relief Pitcher Overview
Chris Roycroft is a Common 60 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Athletics, 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, Chris Roycroft works with a 3-pitch arsenal led by a 96 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 95 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 99 Velocity, 46 Control, and 78 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Chris Roycroft's arsenal: Sinker (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 Sinker off the 4-Seam Fastball, so the two share a release look. Its 99 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.

Live Series cards like Chris Roycroft'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 162 cards it scored 70 or above in its 1 graded update, 72% were upgraded, against 21% by chance: 3.5× better.
