Best Diamond Dynasty Cards in MLB The Show 25 Right Now

While the initial cards might not be the final pieces in your lineup by the end of *MLB The Show 25*'s cycle, they are certainly valuable at the start. Here are some standout Diamond Dynasty cards you can get your hands on:

Team Affinity James Wood

James Wood, the promising outfielder for the Washington Nationals, is a Team Affinity reward. Unlocking him requires effort, but his ability to make solid contact against both left and right-handed pitchers makes it worthwhile.

Pipeline Program Walker Jenkins

20th Anniversary Clayton Kershaw

Clayton Kershaw, a long-time dominant force in *MLB The Show*, returns with the Anniversary Series at the start of *MLB The Show 25*. His solid pitch arsenal, highlighted by his signature 12-6 Curve, makes him a valuable addition, especially for budget-conscious players.

Live Series Emmanuel Clase

In *MLB The Show 25*, relief pitching plays a crucial role in Diamond Dynasty, and Emmanuel Clase's card stands out. Though his pitch mix isn't overwhelming, his above-average fastball and devastating slider make him an ideal closer.
