Yoshinobu Yamamoto — Diamond 90 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview
Yoshinobu Yamamoto is a Diamond 90 OVR Starting Pitcher card for the Dodgers, 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, Yoshinobu Yamamoto 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, 71 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats. Notable quirks include Stopper and Break Outlier from a total of 4 quirks.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Yoshinobu Yamamoto's arsenal: 4-Seam Fastball (S), Cutter (S), Sinker (S), Splitter (A), and Curveball (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 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.
On the Diamond Dynasty market, Yoshinobu Yamamoto currently buys for about 30,000 stubs, with sell orders near 21,201 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 5,797 stubs, about a 27% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
