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: 82.6% MLB and 17.4% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.
Minor-league estimate: 0.9% observed statistical weight and 99.1% 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*.

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 92, Stick of 111, and Carry of 95, Will Vest sits in the 66th percentile, 84th percentile, and 65th percentile in those areas. His 95 Edge lands in the 70th percentile and ranks 121st among relief pitchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Will Vest's 111 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 84th percentile and ranks 112th among relief pitchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Will Vest's contributions to every team he played for. His 92 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 66th percentile and ranks 141st 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 -0.9, defense +0.2. The strongest rated teammates are Kevin McGonigle at 142, Dillon Dingler at 119, and Keider Montero at 118. Will Vest 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 31, Will Vest 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 3332nd 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, $4 million average annual value, and about $4 million in contract-scenario costs for Will Vest. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 126 CE makes the contract a clear source of surplus value, placing him in the 96th percentile and 64th among relief pitchers.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Will Vest'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 2577th among relief pitchers. Will Vest has modest positive value, though the market return would depend heavily on fit and demand.
