Edge Profile

Edge combines Skill, Stick, and Carry to show how valuable a player is right now. With a Skill of 70, Stick of 81, and Carry of 71, Marcell Ozuna sits in the 85th percentile, 89th percentile, and 85th percentile in those areas. His 46 Edge lands in the 85th percentile and ranks 6th among designated hitters.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Marcell Ozuna's 81 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports his current output. It also places him in the 89th percentile and ranks 6th among designated hitters.

Skill Profile

Skill measures the plays that have already happened and how much they affected games. Marcell Ozuna has performed very poorly, and his production has likely cost Pittsburgh Pirates games. Marcell Ozuna's 70 Skill sits in the 85th percentile and ranks 6th among designated hitters.

Carry Profile

Carry places Skill in the context of the roster around a player. The strongest rated teammates are Yohan Ramírez at 139, Luke Weaver at 136, and Brandon Lowe at 135. Marcell Ozuna has contributed about as much as his own Skill suggests, resulting in a Carry of 71.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 35, Marcell Ozuna carries a 100 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 48th percentile and ranks 5th among designated hitters.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. Marcell Ozuna is under control for one season at a $12 million annual salary, with about $12 million remaining. His 80 CE suggests the salary is running ahead of the expected return, placing him in the 1st percentile and 9th among designated hitters.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Marcell Ozuna's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His -6 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 3rd percentile and ranks 9th among designated hitters. Marcell Ozuna carries negative value, so a trade may require salary relief, a smaller return, or another asset.
