With a Perf of 92, Stick of 109, and Carry of 97, Josue De Paula sits in the 66th percentile, 82nd percentile, and 69th percentile in those areas. His 100 Edge lands in the 75th percentile and ranks 27th among left fielders.

Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Josue De Paula's 109 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 82nd percentile and ranks 27th among left fielders.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Josue De Paula'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 34th 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 +1.3, pitching +0.0, defense +0.0. The strongest rated teammates are Shohei Ohtani at 160, Yoshinobu Yamamoto at 150, and Max Muncy at 134.

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 Josue De Paula. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 105 CE leans in the club's favor, placing him in the 60th percentile and 50th among left fielders.
