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 106, Stick of 90, and Carry of 110, Michael Massey sits in the 85th percentile, 31st percentile, and 85th percentile in those areas. His 103 Edge lands in the 77th percentile and ranks 17th among second basemen.

Stick Profile

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Michael Massey's 90 Stick suggests he is outperforming what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 31st percentile and ranks 45th among second basemen.

Perf Profile

Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Michael Massey's contributions to every team he played for. His 106 Perf is above average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 85th percentile and ranks 18th among second basemen.

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 -3.3, pitching +0.0, defense +2.9. The strongest rated teammates are Bobby Witt Jr. at 155, Carter Jensen at 134, and Jac Caglianone at 120. Michael Massey has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 110.

LI Profile

LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 28, Michael Massey carries a 107 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 65th percentile and ranks 248th among second basemen.

CE Profile

CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 3 seasons control horizon, $1.6 million average annual value, and about $1.6 million in contract-scenario costs for Michael Massey. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 97 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 1st percentile and 297th among second basemen.

NTV Profile

NTV estimates Michael Massey's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His 0 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 9th percentile and ranks 282nd among second basemen. Michael Massey sits near neutral value, where salary relief and roster fit may matter as much as the player return.
