Cliff Lee — Red Diamond 99 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview
Cliff Lee is a Red Diamond 99 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Guardians, part of the Awards set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws left-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in September 2026.
On the mound, Cliff Lee works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 93 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 92 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 82 Velocity, 99 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement. Notable quirks include Break Outlier from a total of 3 quirks.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Cliff Lee's arsenal: Sinker (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Cutter (S), Circle Change (A), and Knuckle-curve (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 Sinker off the 4-Seam Fastball, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 82 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.
On the Diamond Dynasty market, Cliff Lee currently buys for about 40,994 stubs, with sell orders near 28,611 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has climbed roughly 22%. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 8,281 stubs, about a 29% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Cliff Lee earns an OpScore of 91.1 on Legend difficulty, ranking #843 among all cards and #148 among Starting Pitchers.
