Louis Varland — Red Diamond 99 OVR Closer Overview
Louis Varland is a Red Diamond 99 OVR Closer card for the Blue Jays, part of the 2026 Finest set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in November 2026.
On the mound, Louis Varland works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 99 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 95 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 99 Velocity, 99 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement. Notable quirks include Outlier I and Outlier II from a total of 4 quirks.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Louis Varland's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Sinker (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 4-Seam Fastball off the Sinker, so the two share a release look. Its 99 mph 4-Seam Fastball 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, Louis Varland currently buys for about 21,396 stubs, with sell orders near 15,888 stubs. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 3,366 stubs, about a 21% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
