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*.

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 93, Stick of 93, and Carry of 96, Braden Montgomery sits in the 68th percentile, 41st percentile, and 67th percentile in those areas. His 87 Edge lands in the 60th percentile and ranks 33rd among right fielders.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Braden Montgomery's 93 Stick suggests he is performing close to the level supported by his underlying profile. It also places him in the 41st percentile and ranks 57th among right fielders.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Braden Montgomery's contributions to every team he played for. His 93 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 68th percentile and ranks 25th among right 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 -1.1, pitching +0.0, defense +0.6. The strongest rated teammates are Miguel Vargas at 148, Tristan Peters at 130, and Chase Meidroth at 129. Braden Montgomery has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 96.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 23, Braden Montgomery carries a 110 LI, which points to a favorable chance to remain productive for several seasons. That places him in the 91st percentile and ranks 3rd among right fielders.
CE Profile
CE compares expected production with the money and years attached to a contract. The model uses a 6 seasons control horizon, $0.8 million average annual value, and about $0.8 million in contract-scenario costs for Braden Montgomery. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 109 CE leans in the club's favor, placing him in the 80th percentile and 34th among right fielders.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Braden Montgomery's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +4 NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 36th percentile and ranks 65th among right fielders. Braden Montgomery has modest positive value, though the market return would depend heavily on fit and demand.
