Luke Murphy

Luke Murphy is a Common 64 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Angels, part of the Live set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in August 2026.

On the mound, Luke Murphy works with a 3-pitch arsenal led by a 94 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 92 mph 2-Seam Fastball. His pitching ratings include 76 Velocity, 56 Control, and 56 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Luke Murphy's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), and 2-Seam Fastball (S). 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 2-Seam Fastball, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 76 mph 2-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, Luke Murphy currently buys for about 18 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has climbed roughly 64%. Its quick-sell value of 5 stubs sits at or above the sell price, making it quick-sell viable. DiamondOps flags the card as currently overpriced.

OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Luke Murphy earns an OpScore of 48.1 on Legend difficulty, ranking #3342 among all cards and #665 among Relief Pitchers.

Live Series cards like Luke Murphy's are the ones Diamond Radar scores: it reads a player's real MLB production and predicts what the next roster update will do to the card — the predicted rating, the tier jump, and how likely the upgrade is. Ratings only move at a roster update, and not every Live Series card is scored in a given window. Model v11: of the 358 cards it scored 70 or above in its 3 graded updates, 69% were upgraded, against 17% by chance: 4.1× better.
