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 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*.

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 103, Stick of 112, and Carry of 107, Nick Pivetta sits in the 82nd percentile, 85th percentile, and 82nd percentile in those areas. His 115 Edge lands in the 85th percentile and ranks 46th among starting pitchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Nick Pivetta's 112 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 85th percentile and ranks 43rd among starting pitchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Nick Pivetta's contributions to every team he played for. His 103 Perf is around average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 82nd percentile and ranks 58th among starting 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 +1.4, defense +0.1. The strongest rated teammates are Fernando Tatis Jr. at 136, Jackson Merrill at 133, and Ty France at 123. Nick Pivetta has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 107.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 33, Nick Pivetta carries a 98 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 5th percentile and ranks 1678th among starting pitchers.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 3 seasons control horizon, $13.8 million average annual value, and about $52.5 million in contract-scenario costs for Nick Pivetta. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 88 CE suggests the salary is running ahead of the expected return, placing him in the 1st percentile and 1677th among starting pitchers.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Nick Pivetta'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 68th percentile and ranks 855th among starting pitchers. Nick Pivetta carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
