About these ratings

Tool ratings combine recorded performance with statistical estimates. Speed, arm, and fielding include outcome-based estimates rather than direct physical measurements.

CE estimate: Annual club costs do not reconcile with the reported obligation.

CE uses the best available contract information, including partial terms, estimated salaries, and projected team control. CE shows an asterisk only when current contract information is unavailable; free agents without a current agreement use 100*.

Six-tool graphs show percentiles from available performance evidence. Speed uses baserunning outcomes; Arm uses position-adjusted throwing outcomes. Movement describes tracked pitch movement within pitch type. Minor-league comparisons account for competition level; unavailable measurements display MD.

Edge Profile

Edge combines Perf, Stick, and Carry to show how valuable a player is right now. With a Perf of 94, Stick of 100, and Carry of 98, Jakob Junis sits in the 70th percentile, 65th percentile, and 71st percentile in those areas. His 90 Edge lands in the 64th percentile and ranks 158th among relief pitchers.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Jakob Junis' 100 Stick suggests he is performing close to the level supported by his underlying profile. It also places him in the 65th percentile and ranks 279th among relief pitchers.

Perf Profile

Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Jakob Junis's contributions to every team he played for. His 94 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 70th percentile and ranks 112th among relief pitchers.

Carry Profile

Carry places Perf in the context of the roster around a player and includes a bounded clutch adjustment for offense, pitching, and defense when available. Close games and later innings earn more weight, and difficult defensive plays receive their own credit. His clutch runs are offense +0.0, pitching +0.0, defense +0.1. The strongest rated teammates are Wyatt Langford at 131, Ezequiel Duran at 124, and Jacob Latz at 119. Jakob Junis has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 98.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 34, Jakob Junis carries a 93 LI, which points to a shorter or less certain window due to role, age, or pitching risk. That places him in the 1st percentile and ranks 3363rd among relief pitchers.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a one season control horizon, $4 million average annual value, and about $2.8 million in contract-scenario costs for Jakob Junis. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 114 CE leans in the club's favor, placing him in the 89th percentile and 254th among relief pitchers.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Jakob Junis's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His -10 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 1st percentile and ranks 3454th among relief pitchers. Jakob Junis carries negative value, so a trade may require salary relief, a smaller return, or another asset.
