On the mound, Freddy Peralta works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 95 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 87 mph Circle Change. His pitching ratings include 76 Velocity, 80 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats. Notable quirks include Break Outlier from a total of 3 quirks.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Freddy Peralta's arsenal: Slider (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), Sweeper (S), Circle Change (A), and 12-6 Curve (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 Sweeper, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 76 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, Freddy Peralta currently buys for about 5,640 stubs, with sell orders near 5,001 stubs. Over the past 7 days the price has held roughly steady. Flipping at current buy and sell prices nets roughly 73 stubs, about a 1% return. DiamondOps suggests waiting for a better entry point.
