Phil Maton — Bronze 71 OVR Relief Pitcher Overview
Phil Maton is a Bronze 71 OVR Relief Pitcher card for the Cubs, part of the Live set in MLB The Show's Diamond Dynasty. He throws right-handed. The card was added to Diamond Dynasty in April 2026.
On the mound, Phil Maton works with a 4-pitch arsenal led by a 91 mph Cutter and a 90 mph Sinker. His pitching ratings include 66 Velocity, 69 Control, and 98 Break. The profile favors a movement-heavy arsenal built to miss bats.
DiamondOps grades each pitch in Phil Maton's arsenal: Cutter (S), Sweeper (S), Sinker (S), and Curveball (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 Cutter off the Sweeper, so the two share a release look. Velocity works against the card here — its 66 mph Cutter 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, Phil Maton currently buys for about 28 stubs, with sell orders near 0 stubs. Over the past 7 days the buy price has fallen roughly 24%. Its quick-sell value of 25 stubs sits at or above the sell price, making it quick-sell viable. DiamondOps currently rates the card a buy at this price.
