Cole Ragans

Cole Ragans is a Red Diamond 97 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Royals, part of the Topps Now 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, Cole Ragans works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 95 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 91 mph Cutter. His pitching ratings include 80 Velocity, 89 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 Cole Ragans's arsenal: Slider (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 Slider off the Cutter, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 80 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, Cole Ragans currently buys for about 6,000 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has fallen roughly 8%. Its quick-sell value of 5,000 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. Cole Ragans earns an OpScore of 86.7 on Legend difficulty, ranking #1088 among all cards and #212 among Starting Pitchers.
