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*.
2026 win contribution
2.06 Player Wins · 1.18 expected from replacement · 0.89 wins above replacement
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 97, Stick of 90, and Carry of 99, Nick Sogard sits in the 74th percentile, 31st percentile, and 72nd percentile in those areas. His 90 Edge lands in the 64th percentile and ranks 30th among second basemen.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Nick Sogard's 90 Stick suggests he is performing close to the level supported by his underlying profile. It also places him in the 31st percentile and ranks 46th among second basemen.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Nick Sogard's contributions to every team he played for. His 97 Perf is around average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 74th percentile and ranks 29th 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 -1.4, pitching +0.0, defense +0.4. The strongest rated teammates are Wilyer Abreu at 140, Willson Contreras at 131, and Payton Tolle at 118. Nick Sogard has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 99.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 29, Nick Sogard 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 252nd among second basemen.
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 Nick Sogard. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 102 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 29th percentile and 200th among second basemen.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Nick Sogard's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +1 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 17th percentile and ranks 251st among second basemen. Nick Sogard has modest positive value, though the market return would depend heavily on fit and demand.
