Jake Arrieta — Diamond 93 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview
Jake Arrieta is a Diamond 93 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Cubs, part of the 2nd Half Heroes set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in May 2026.
On the mound, Jake Arrieta works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 96 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 95 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 99 Velocity, 76 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Jake Arrieta's arsenal: Slider (S), Sinker (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Circle Change (A), and Slurve (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 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.
