Diamond Dynasty is interesting in that sometimes the cards you spent thousands of Stubs on end up losing their diamond status. On the other hand, sometimes you can invest in cheap cards, have a player take off in the real world, and find that card is suddenly worth a fortune. Thankfully, MLB The Show 21 doesn’t push roster updates all that frequently, just every other week. In this guide, we’ll take a look at who has found themselves promoted, demoted, and who has shifted the most.
