Limited MLB evidence: 65.1% MLB and 34.9% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.
Minor-league estimate: 2.8% observed statistical weight and 97.2% historical peer baseline; individual tools use their own sample weights.

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 87, Stick of 135, and Carry of 92, Ryan Helsley sits in the 50th percentile, 97th percentile, and 54th percentile in those areas. His 107 Edge lands in the 80th percentile and ranks 63rd among relief pitchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Ryan Helsley's 135 Stick suggests he is performing far below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 97th percentile and ranks 21st among relief pitchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Ryan Helsley's contributions to every team he played for. His 87 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 50th percentile and ranks 259th 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 +0.7, defense +0.0. The strongest rated teammates are Pete Alonso at 143, Trevor Rogers at 121, and Gunnar Henderson at 120. Ryan Helsley has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 92.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 32, Ryan Helsley carries a 97 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 3rd percentile and ranks 3297th among relief pitchers.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 2 seasons control horizon, $14 million average annual value, and about $28 million in contract-scenario costs for Ryan Helsley. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 127 CE makes the contract a clear source of surplus value, placing him in the 96th percentile and 61st among relief pitchers.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Ryan Helsley's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +8* NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 58th percentile and ranks 1063rd among relief pitchers. Ryan Helsley has modest positive value, though the market return would depend heavily on fit and demand.
