Josh Hader is a Diamond 85 OVR Closer card for the Astros, 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, Josh Hader works with a 3-pitch arsenal led by a 96 mph 2-Seam Fastball and a 88 mph Circle Change. His pitching ratings include 92 Velocity, 68 Control, and 67 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.

DiamondOps grades each pitch in Josh Hader's arsenal: Slider (S), 2-Seam Fastball (S), and Circle Change (A). 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 2-Seam Fastball off the Slider, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 92 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, Josh Hader currently buys for about 3,666 stubs, with sell orders near 3,000 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 297 stubs, about a 10% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.

OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Josh Hader earns an OpScore of 67 on Legend difficulty, ranking #1429 among all cards and #77 among Closers.
