Diplacido began playing at the professional level in 1998 in the USL A-League with Toronto Lynx.[3] In his debut season with Toronto, he received the club's Public Relations award.[4] He appeared in 17 matches in his debut season in the A-League.[5] He re-signed with Toronto for the following season.[6]

In 2000, the Lynx extended his contract for his third consecutive season for the club.[7] In the initial stages of the 2000 season, he recorded his first professional goal on April 30, 2000, against Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC.[8][9] He helped Toronto secure a postseason berth for the second time in the club's history.[10] Toronto would reach the Conference finals against Rochester Rhinos but would be eliminated from the playoffs by a score of 2-1 on goals on aggregate.[11]

He returned to Toronto for his fourth season in 2001 and received the club's Fan Favourite award.[4][12] His fifth season with Toronto was notable as he reached a personal milestone by making his 100th appearance on June 9, 2002, against Charleston Battery.[4][13]

After the conclusion of the 2002 A-League season, he was loaned to the Mississauga Olympians of the Canadian Professional Soccer League in order to assist the club in securing a playoff berth.[14] He made his debut on September 11, 2002, in a CPSL Canada Cup match against Toronto Croatia.[14] He helped Mississauga secure a postseason by recording the winning goal against Hamilton Thunder in a 3-2 victory.[15] The Olympians were eliminated in the opening round of the playoffs to the North York Astros.[16]

He resumed his duties with Toronto Lynx for the 2003 season and was named to the A-League Team of the Week in the finals weeks of the season.[17] He also received an additional team award as the club's Best Offensive Player.[17] After spending the winter season with Philadelphia KiXX the Lynx re-signed him for the 2004 season.[18]

After a short stint in Montreal, he returned to the Toronto Lynx for the 2006 campaign.[19] Throughout the 2006 season, he assisted Toronto in reaching the finals of the Open Canada Cup where they were defeated by Ottawa St. Anthony Italia.[20] The 2006 season marked his final year with the Toronto Lynx where he finished first in the rankings in the club's all-time match appearances with 206.[5]

He returned to Toronto for the 2005 season, but he was transferred along with Charles Gbeke to league rivals Montreal Impact before the August 1 transfer deadline.[21][22][23] In his debut season with Montreal, he assisted the club in securing a playoff berth by winning the regular-season title.[24] He also helped Montreal in securing a league double by winning the Voyageurs Cup.[25] In the playoffs, Montreal was eliminated from the competition after losing the series to the Seattle Sounders.[26]

Canadian Soccer League

After the relegation of Toronto Lynx to the Premier Development League, he returned to the Canadian Soccer League to play with North York Astros.[27] He made his debut on June 7 in an exhibition game against the Mexico U-20.[28] He assisted the Astros by clinching a playoff berth by finishing third in the National Division but was eliminated by eventual champions Toronto Croatia. He was also selected for the 2007 CSL All-Star match where he was named to the National Division team.[29]

In 2008, Diplacido signed with league rivals Italia Shooters.[30] Diplacido helped the Shooters win their second International Division title.[31] In the playoff run, he contributed by a victory over the Brampton Lions in the quarterfinals.[32] Ultimately Italia was defeated in the second round by eventual champions Serbian White Eagles.[33]
