Sam Aldegheri — Common 57 OVR Relief Pitcher Overview
Sam Aldegheri is a Common 57 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Angels, part of the Live 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, Sam Aldegheri works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 92 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 82 mph Circle Change. His pitching ratings include 60 Velocity, 50 Control, and 81 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Sam Aldegheri's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Circle Change (A), and Curveball (B). 2 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 Slider, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 60 mph 4-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.
