About these ratings
Tool ratings combine recorded performance with statistical estimates. Speed, arm, and fielding include outcome-based estimates rather than direct physical measurements.
Limited MLB evidence: 82.8% MLB and 17.2% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.
Minor-league estimate: 65.3% observed statistical weight and 34.7% historical peer baseline; individual tools use their own sample weights.

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*.

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 93, Stick of 101, and Carry of 95, John Rave sits in the 68th percentile, 68th percentile, and 65th percentile in those areas. His 97 Edge lands in the 73rd percentile and ranks 24th among right fielders.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. John Rave's 101 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 68th percentile and ranks 30th among right fielders.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes John Rave's contributions to every team he played for. His 93 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 68th percentile and ranks 27th among right 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 +0.8, pitching +0.0, defense -2.7. The strongest rated teammates are Bobby Witt Jr. at 155, Carter Jensen at 134, and Jac Caglianone at 120. John Rave has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 95.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 28, John Rave carries a 106 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 52nd percentile and ranks 80th among right fielders.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 6 seasons control horizon, $0.2 million average annual value, and about $0.2 million in contract-scenario costs for John Rave. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 115 CE makes the contract a clear source of surplus value, placing him in the 90th percentile and 28th among right fielders.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates John Rave's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +18* NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 88th percentile and ranks 38th among right fielders. John Rave carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
