His 43 Edge lands in the 85th percentile and ranks 58th among first basemen.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Jorge Polanco's 60 Stick suggests he is outperforming what his underlying profile supports his current output. It also places him in the 85th percentile and ranks 61st among first basemen.

Skill Profile

Skill measures the plays that have already happened and how much they affected games. Jorge Polanco has performed very poorly, and his production has likely cost New York Mets games. Jorge Polanco's 79 Skill sits in the 86th percentile and ranks 47th among first basemen.

Carry Profile

Carry places Skill in the context of the roster around a player. The strongest rated teammates are Juan Soto at 125, Carson Benge at 124, and Luis Torrens at 120. Jorge Polanco has contributed about as much as his own Skill suggests, resulting in a Carry of 80.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 33, Jorge Polanco carries a 94 LI, which points to a shorter window before age or role begins to limit his value. That places him in the 39th percentile and ranks 55th among first basemen.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. Jorge Polanco is under control for 2 seasons at a $20 million annual salary, with about $40 million remaining. His 45 CE marks the contract as a substantial drag on his value, placing him in the 1st percentile and 397th among first basemen.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Jorge Polanco's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His -26 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 1st percentile and ranks 398th among first basemen. Jorge Polanco is deeply underwater as a trade asset and would likely require substantial salary relief or added value to move.
