About these ratings
Tool ratings combine recorded performance with statistical estimates. Speed, arm, and fielding include outcome-based estimates rather than direct physical measurements.
Current contract and service-control terms are unavailable. Historical statistics remain available.
Minor-league estimate: 29.4% observed statistical weight and 70.6% historical peer baseline; individual tools use their own sample weights.
CE inputs: Current contract information is unavailable. CE uses a neutral 100* fallback.
Neutral fallback: 0* NTV and 100* CE keep this player available in simulations while required inputs are reviewed.
* On NTV, this indicates estimated or unverified inputs. CE uses an asterisk only when current contract information is unavailable.
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*.
2026 win contribution
-0.34 Player Wins · 0.48 expected from replacement · -0.82 wins above replacement
Includes contributions to every team played for in 2026. Perf expresses wins above replacement on a scale where 100 is average. How the win totals reconcile
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 76, Stick of 73, and Carry of 80, Justin Topa sits in the 7th percentile, 4th percentile, and 7th percentile in those areas. His 50 Edge lands in the 2nd percentile and ranks 503rd among relief pitchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Justin Topa's 73 Stick suggests he is performing close to the level supported by his underlying profile. It also places him in the 4th percentile and ranks 631st among relief pitchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Justin Topa's contributions to every team he played for. His 76 Perf is well below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 7th percentile and ranks 489th 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 -1.4, defense +0.1. The strongest rated teammates are Cam Schlittler at 165, Cody Bellinger at 141, and Ben Rice at 133. Justin Topa has contributed about as much as his own Perf 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 35, Justin Topa 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 3375th among relief pitchers.
CE Profile
100* CE is a neutral placeholder because a usable contract-value estimate cannot yet be calculated. It keeps Justin Topa available in simulations and does not establish fair contract value.
NTV Profile
0* NTV is a neutral placeholder, not a finding that Justin Topa has no value. Required inputs are incomplete; the player remains selectable in every simulation.
