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*.

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 142, Stick of 88, and Carry of 147, Steven Kwan sits in the 98th percentile, 26th percentile, and 98th percentile in those areas. His 153 Edge lands in the 95th percentile and ranks 8th among left fielders.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Steven Kwan's 88 Stick suggests he is vastly outperforming what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 26th percentile and ranks 106th among left fielders.

Perf Profile

Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Steven Kwan's contributions to every team he played for. His 142 Perf is elite on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 98th percentile and ranks 4th 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 +1.0, pitching +0.0, defense -1.6. The strongest rated teammates are Parker Messick at 136, Chase DeLauter at 119, and Cade Smith at 118. Steven Kwan has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 147.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 29, Steven Kwan 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 133rd among left fielders.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 2 seasons control horizon, $7.7 million average annual value, and about $7.7 million in contract-scenario costs for Steven Kwan. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 145 CE shows that the club is receiving far more value than the contract costs, placing him in the 99th percentile and 7th among left fielders.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Steven Kwan's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +30 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 97th percentile and ranks 21st among left fielders. Steven Kwan carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
