Allow me to put on my tinfoil hat.... Its simple. Everyone has invested in Reyes. They don't want to boost his live series because then alot of people will have a ton of stubs. Same with yermin. Same with ohtani. Same with Lynn. Same with vladdy jr.
You will eventually have a diamond Reyes card if he keeps it up, but it will be a topps now or a potm card. And his live series will remain cheap.

Hmmm Vladdy went up to diamond, Ohtani won’t upgrade since he’s not pitching.
You think those that did go up weren’t invested in?

I don't think I have ever seen this many LS diamonds or this many 90+ LS cards.

Bryant, Lynn, and Ohtani are the most significant cards that deserve more love when it comes to the gold/diamond limbo.
Each of those three should at least be 86rs or 87rs.

You must mean a POTM line of cards for a diamond Reyes which should be doable based on his stats. But they def wont boost his LS that high. He isnt a Yankee, Dodger or Padre

Lets see
Lance Lynn - The upped his H/9 rating and lowered his K/9 and BB/9. Looking at the stats for the last three years his H/9 is at a career low which is good. His Strikeouts per 9 are down this this year and he is walking more per 9 this year. That said they have not touched his HR/9 at all this year and they probably should as it is quite a bit lower this year
Bryant is having a good season but he did not have a good one last year and those stats still are factored in to his ratings. That said in three updates this year he has jumped from an 80 to an 82 so he is trending in the right direction.
Ohtani - Is just a weird case. He has had upgrades and downgrades to hi[censored]ting stats but I saw nothing listed for his pitching and his card is considered a SP, right? This one probably requires more manual intervention
So Lynn seems to be the one with the most legitimate case since they have not touched his HR/9 stat and they probably should.
(these are these are the observations of someone who does not even own a single copy of any of these cards)
-
For those calling for Shohei Ohtani to get an upgrade, you have to understand how the rating system works:
- Since his primary position is Starting Pitcher, hi[censored]ting attributes do not affect his overall rating in any way.
- Therefore, his overall won't go up unless his set of pitching attributes deserve to go up; which he has only had seven starts and 36.1 innings of work so far.
- His numbers have been good on the pitching side, as he's sporting a 4.7 hits and 12.4 strikeouts per/9, but he's walking a ton of guys and has only pitched more than five innings in a start twice so far.
- So, with that said... that's the reason why Ohtani hasn't gotten an upgrade to diamond. Yes, hi[censored]ting numbers are incredible. But until SDS changes the way the game calculates overall, hi[censored]ting numbers will not matter when it comes to his actual overall. Keep this in mind!

I was hoping for Carson Kelly to get an upgrade.... oh well, on to the next set of investments

Were you around last year? The devs went crazy and gave just about anyone who was having an excellent season a 90+ overall.
I just went back and looked. There were 15 Live Series cards that were a 90 overall or above:
Mike Trout (95)
Jacob deGrom (94)
Mookie Betts (93)
Freddie Freeman (92)
Trevor Bauer (92)
Manny Machado (92)
Juan Soto (91)
Corey Seager (91)
Gerrit Cole (91)
Shane Bieber (91)
D.J. Lemahieu (91)
Trea Turner (90)
Jose Abreu (90)
Aaron Judge (90)
Justin Verlander (90) -

I had a feeling that with him just coming off an Injured-List stint that he wouldn't be included in this update.
I wouldn't worry though. With the way he has been producing, it's a matter of when, not if he will go gold. He is on an unbelievable pace to this point.
-
Don’t forget that with the offense being down and so many pitchers dominating, to get a significant upgrade at this position you have to be head and shoulders above the pack AND have good 19 and 20 seasons AND have been healthy the majority of that time

Justin Verlander (90)I do think last year was a little different because there was no baseball until ~August so most of the cards that were promoted to 90+ didn’t see much of a price increase since they were already near quick sale value.
