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 cost for 2031 is estimated from incomplete terms. Annual cost for 2032 is estimated from incomplete terms. Published annual cost differs from the payroll cross-check; the accounting or terms need reconciliation.
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 127, Stick of 108, and Carry of 133, Mookie Betts sits in the 96th percentile, 81st percentile, and 95th percentile in those areas. His 150 Edge lands in the 95th percentile and ranks 8th among shortstops.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Mookie Betts' 108 Stick suggests he is outperforming what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 81st percentile and ranks 12th among shortstops.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Mookie Betts's contributions to every team he played for. His 127 Perf is excellent on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 96th percentile and ranks 9th among shortstops.
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 +1.6, pitching +0.0, defense +5.6. The strongest rated teammates are Shohei Ohtani at 160, Yoshinobu Yamamoto at 150, and Max Muncy at 134. Mookie Betts has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 133.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 34, Mookie Betts carries a 100 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 16th percentile and ranks 806th among shortstops.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 7 seasons control horizon, $30.4 million average annual value, and about $198.7 million in contract-scenario costs for Mookie Betts. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 98 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 2nd percentile and 791st among shortstops.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Mookie Betts's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +37 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 98th percentile and ranks 16th among shortstops. Mookie Betts is a major trade asset with enough value to anchor a significant deal.
