Best Diamond Dynasty Cards in MLB The Show 25 Right Now

20th Anniversary Clayton Kershaw

Clayton Kershaw, a dominant force in *MLB The Show* for over a decade, returns in the Anniversary Series. His solid pitch arsenal, including his signature 12-6 Curve, makes him a formidable starter. Plus, his affordability on the market makes him a great pick for budget-conscious players.

Live Series Emmanuel Clase

Emmanuel Clase's card is a must-have for relief pitching in *MLB The Show 25* Diamond Dynasty. While his pitch mix isn't the most diverse, his above-average fastball and devastating slider make him an excellent closer.
