About these ratings
Tool ratings combine recorded performance with statistical estimates. Speed, arm, and fielding include outcome-based estimates rather than direct physical measurements.
Limited MLB evidence: 4.3% MLB and 95.7% level-adjusted minor-league estimate.
Minor-league estimate: 66.9% observed statistical weight and 33.1% historical peer baseline; individual tools use their own sample weights.
* On NTV, this indicates estimated or unverified inputs. CE uses an asterisk only when current contract information is unavailable.
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

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 85, Stick of 99, and Carry of 89, Collin Price sits in the 39th percentile, 61st percentile, and 38th percentile in those areas. His 86 Edge lands in the 58th percentile and ranks 54th among catchers.
Stick Profile
Stick looks beyond the immediate results and estimates what should hold over a larger sample. Collin Price's 99 Stick suggests he is performing below what his underlying profile supports. It also places him in the 61st percentile and ranks 43rd among catchers.
Perf Profile
Perf measures season wins above replacement after allocating each team's actual wins to its players. It includes Collin Price's contributions to every team he played for. His 85 Perf is below average on a scale where 100 is average and 20 points is one standard deviation. It sits in the 39th percentile and ranks 67th among catchers.
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 -0.3, pitching +0.0, defense +0.0. The strongest rated teammates are Yordan Alvarez at 172, Isaac Paredes at 136, and Jeremy Peña at 130. Collin Price has contributed about as much as his own Perf suggests, resulting in a Carry of 89.
LI Profile
LI looks at how much useful baseball a player may still have ahead of him. At age 27, Collin Price carries a 103 LI, which points to a steady near-term outlook without a major longevity advantage. That places him in the 42nd percentile and ranks 636th among catchers.
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 Collin Price. Options and arbitration can make those years or costs conditional; manual contract inputs may lag new agreements. His 101 CE is close to a fair exchange between salary and production, placing him in the 23rd percentile and 623rd among catchers.
NTV Profile
NTV estimates Collin Price's value on a neutral trade market before the needs of a specific club are considered. His +25* NTV reflects his present ability, expected future value, age, contract, control, positional demand, and risk. That mark sits in the 94th percentile and ranks 58th among catchers. Collin Price carries clear positive value and should return a useful major league piece or prospect package.
