Framber Valdez — Diamond 88 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview
Framber Valdez is a Diamond 88 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Tigers, part of the New Threads 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, Framber Valdez works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 95 mph Sinker and a 95 mph 4-Seam Fastball. His pitching ratings include 96 Velocity, 77 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats. Notable quirks include Stopper and Break Outlier from a total of 4 quirks.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Framber Valdez's arsenal: Slider (S), Sinker (S), 4-Seam Fastball (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 Sinker off the 4-Seam Fastball, 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, Framber Valdez currently buys for about 3,732 stubs, with sell orders near 2,750 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 606 stubs, about a 22% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
