Jhoan Duran

Jhoan Duran is a Diamond 85 OVR Closer card for the Phillies, part of the Live 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, Jhoan Duran works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 99 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 92 mph Splitter. His pitching ratings include 99 Velocity, 65 Control, and 95 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats. Notable quirks include Outlier I and Outlier II from a total of 4 quirks.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Jhoan Duran's arsenal: 4-Seam Fastball (S), Sweeper (S), Splitter (A), and 12-6 Curve (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 Splitter off the 4-Seam Fastball, 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.
