Kyle Freeland — Diamond 94 OVR Starting Pitcher Overview

On the mound, Kyle Freeland works with a 5-pitch arsenal led by a 92 mph 4-Seam Fastball and a 87 mph Cutter. His pitching ratings include 60 Velocity, 99 Control, and 99 Break. The profile favors a balanced mix of command and movement.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Kyle Freeland's arsenal: 4-Seam Fastball (S), Cutter (S), Sweeper (S), Circle Change (A), and Knuckle-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 Cutter, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 60 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.
Kyle Freeland 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. Kyle Freeland earns an OpScore of 82.1 on Legend difficulty, ranking #894 among all cards and #178 among Starting Pitchers.
