About these ratings

Tool ratings combine recorded performance with statistical estimates. Speed, arm, and fielding include outcome-based estimates rather than direct physical measurements.

Some tools are unavailable. MD means missing data; unavailable tools are left out of the graph, not scored as zero.

Limited MLB evidence: 13.0% MLB and 87.1% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.

Minor-league estimate: 43.6% observed statistical weight and 56.4% 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*.

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 Michel Otañez is right now. There is not enough major league data to place him reliably against the rest of the league.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Michel Otañez's 105 Stick suggests he is showing an underlying profile that cannot yet be compared cleanly with his results. It also places him in the 77th percentile and ranks 171st among relief pitchers.

Perf Profile

Perf measures the plays that have already happened and how much they affected games. Michel Otañez does not yet have enough major league work for a reliable Perf report.

Carry Profile

Carry places a player's Perf in the context of the roster around him. Michel Otañez does not yet have enough major league work for a reliable Carry report.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 29, Michel Otañez carries a 99 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 10th percentile and ranks 2832nd among relief pitchers.

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 Michel Otañez. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 103 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 38th percentile and 2125th among relief pitchers.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Michel Otañez's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +15* NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 82nd percentile and ranks 197th among relief pitchers. Michel Otañez carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
