On the mound, Adam Ottavino works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 94 mph Sinker and a 94 mph 4-Seam Fastball. His pitching ratings include 95 Velocity, 0 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Adam Ottavino's arsenal: Sweeper (S), Sinker (S), Cutter (S), 4-Seam Fastball (S), and Circle Change (A). 4 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 Sinker off the 4-Seam Fastball, so the two share a release look. Arsenal grades are the same at every difficulty — unlike a hitter's OpScore, a pitch mix does not re-weight as you climb.
Adam Ottavino is not currently traded on the open Diamond Dynasty market — cards like this are typically earned through programs or collections rather than bought with stubs.
OpScore is DiamondOps' composite rating of a card's in-game performance value. Adam Ottavino earns an OpScore of 66.7 on Legend difficulty, ranking #1444 among all cards and #148 among Relief Pitchers.
