Kenley Jansen

Kenley Jansen is a Diamond 87 OVR Closer card for the Tigers, part of the World Baseball Classic 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, Kenley Jansen works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 93 mph Cutter and a 93 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 83 Velocity, 72 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Kenley Jansen's arsenal: Slider (S), Cutter (S), Sinker (S), and Sweeper (S). 4 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 Cutter off the Slider, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 83 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, Kenley Jansen currently buys for about 7,498 stubs, with sell orders near 2,756 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 3,990 stubs, about a 145% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.

OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Kenley Jansen earns an OpScore of 75.7 on Legend difficulty, ranking #1527 among all cards and #75 among Closers.
