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*.
2026 win contribution

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 79, Stick of 106, and Carry of 83, Ronel Blanco sits in the 13th percentile, 78th percentile, and 13th percentile in those areas. His 80 Edge lands in the 45th percentile and ranks 121st among starting pitchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Ronel Blanco's 106 Stick suggests he is performing far below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 78th percentile and ranks 67th among starting pitchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Ronel Blanco's contributions to every team he played for. His 79 Perf is well below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 13th percentile and ranks 167th 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 -1.2, defense -0.0. The strongest rated teammates are Yordan Alvarez at 172, Isaac Paredes at 136, and Jeremy Peña at 130. Ronel Blanco has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 83.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 33, Ronel Blanco 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 1680th among starting pitchers.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 4 seasons control horizon, $0.8 million average annual value, and about $0.8 million in contract-scenario costs for Ronel Blanco. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 120 CE makes the contract a clear source of surplus value, placing him in the 94th percentile and 130th among starting pitchers.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Ronel Blanco's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +2 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 24th percentile and ranks 1568th among starting pitchers. Ronel Blanco has modest positive value, though the market return would depend heavily on fit and demand.
