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 club control is unverified. Any usable estimate uses the last available contract inputs and does not establish current trade rights.

Limited MLB evidence: 20.0% MLB and 80.0% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.

Minor-league estimate: 72.9% observed statistical weight and 27.1% historical peer baseline; individual tools use their own sample weights.

* 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*.

Edge Profile

Edge combines Perf, Stick, and Carry to show how valuable a player is right now. With a Perf of 89, Stick of 102, and Carry of 94, Ryan Ward sits in the 58th percentile, 71st percentile, and 62nd percentile in those areas. His 91 Edge lands in the 66th percentile and ranks 39th among left fielders.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Ryan Ward's 102 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 71st percentile and ranks 46th among left fielders.

Perf Profile

Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Ryan Ward's contributions to every team he played for. His 89 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 58th percentile and ranks 45th among left fielders.

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 +1.1, pitching +0.0, defense +0.1. The strongest rated teammates are Shohei Ohtani at 160, Yoshinobu Yamamoto at 150, and Max Muncy at 134. Ryan Ward has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 94.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 28, Ryan Ward carries a 109 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 79th percentile and ranks 91st among left fielders.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 6 seasons control horizon, $0.8 million average annual value, and about $0.8 million in contract-scenario costs for Ryan Ward. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 104 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 50th percentile and 58th among left fielders.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Ryan Ward's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +27* NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 95th percentile and ranks 24th among left fielders. Ryan Ward carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
