Josh Ekness is a Common 62 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Marlins, part of the Live set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in May 2026.

On the mound, Josh Ekness works with a 3-pitch arsenal led by a 97 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 84 mph Slider. His pitching ratings include 86 Velocity, 52 Control, and 58 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Josh Ekness's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), and Changeup (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 86 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.

On the Diamond Dynasty market, Josh Ekness currently buys for about 36 stubs, with sell orders near 5 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has climbed roughly 24%. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 25 stubs, about a 417% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.

OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Josh Ekness earns an OpScore of 47.2 on Legend difficulty, ranking #2919 among all cards and #632 among Relief Pitchers.
