The Show just listed some of the LS players that are starting off at Diamond on their Facebook account.
Guess they're throwing out the '3 year avg' formula as Michael Harris is starting off as a Diamond.
Yes, I know he was hot last year and ended up as a Diamond; but I guess they're pulling their best Oprah Winfrey impression when assigning Diamonds. (also considering Sale is still a Diamond and has pitched about 7 games in the last two years.
Also, Machado is a Diamond; so looks like he may be the Gatekeeper for SD until Tatis returns.
Not all diamond club members will start with LS diamonds. Those cards are to award the players for their previous season.
I'm pretty sure these are LS cards and not a new type of card.
A few years back they had tweets where they showed a current player, with his LS Diamond card, and they were titled Diamond Club Members.
They are 1/1 cards for the players. The diamond in the top right corner indicates the number of years they've been selected to be a part of the diamond club.
Where did you pull up a picture of the card?
I didn't. It was in one of SDS's player presentation videos on Twitter. I think it was Buxton's or J-Rod's but I don't remember exactly.
By chance did they have the player holding a small case and when they opened it there was a statue, or something like an award, in it?
If so, I'm pretty sure that's SDS acknowledging the player will be starting out as a LS Diamond THIS year. (If they showed Harris and he had a 1 in the top corner, even though he eventually made Diamond last year, he stated out at a (I think) Bronze). That 1 means this is the first year that he STARTS out as a Diamond.
Guess we'll find out when the game release next week.

Ayeee...you're really going to make me dig through my Twitter feed, aren't you.

I'll look for it. I'm waiting for some of the vets to chime in. I swear that when someone starts out as a Diamond, for the new year, that's what they mean by 'Diamond Club'.

Yes. I just watched it. I really don't think that's going to be a new series. I think that means his LS card will start out as a Diamond this year.
But again, we may have to wait until the game is released.
Maybe @CBrev47_MLBTS can chime in.

Are the diamond club cards determined from Franchise or DD? They are not the same thing. There are 5 live series guys getting 99's in franchise. So the rating criteria is different for the two modes.
-
So it appears the Diamond Club members will have a diamond card in the game, but we don’t know what their rating will be until the game comes out. Here is the page for when the Diamond Club in 21.

Harris was a rookie last year. So no 3 year avg. They can't avg what's not there. And he won ROY and is a 5 tool player. Not just a hitter. So I would be surprised if he wasn't a diamond. If he is only an 85 then his hitting probably won't be great.

I actually thought of that after I made the post.

Yeah. That's what I meant. Although your idea would've been pretty cool. No wrong answers here.

Can you ask the question again? Kinda don't wanna read the whole thread.

If MH2nd is only an 85 I would have to ask......... Why? Just why? Which attribute category did you have to BUTCHER to make him that low?

There is a post on MLB The Show's Facebook page about new Diamond Club Members.
I assumed these were the LS players that were going to start out as Diamonds. @Blind_Bleeder took it as a possible new card format (SS, Milestone, etc).
I mentioned that the have done this before and the card shown in the video is a special card just for that player (actual 1 of 1).
We had a friendly little debate going on. But Blind posted a link where it states that it's LS players that are starting out as a Diamond.
I remembered they did this before and was trying to get verification thus why I tagged you and ferris.

Don't know the actual ratings yet. Just an assumption as 85 is the lowest you can be rated to get Diamond status. I'm going to guess 87-88. Only 90+ cards will be Ohtani, Trout, Scherzer, and maybe Judge. May be missing one or two.

Oh okay, as far as I know this Diamond club thing is just a way to promote the players who will have a diamond LS rating at the start of the cycle. They try to give it an award kinda vibe for the players while sharing their reactions on social for clout.

My bad. I misunderstood your entire comment. I assumed you thought SDS was going to release a new series and those players listed were going to be in that series. That's why I came back with the LS rebuttal.
I apologize for the assumption.

First of all: The diamond club and their videos showing players opening a box and pulling out kind of a trophy with a diamond card means: The player is getting a diamond rating in DD. It was the same last year and the year before (if I remember correctly).
Usually the even call it something like „The club of 40“, which means, that we are getting 40 diamonds in DD to start offDon‘t be confused with the „ratings reveal“, which was offline ratings.

MH ist a special thing, I suppose. Usually they are doing this „last-3-year-average“. He has only one (and a good one with a WAR over 5), maybe their algorithm had some kind of „projection“ for years, which he played less than a full season (same for the pandemic year). That algorithm voted him down a little (and/or they corrected this special case) … I think, 85 is an awesome starting point for this case
