Quantitative Evaluation of Skahan's Role

Analysis: Jack Skahan's available profile covers a 10-game sample between April 19, 2026, and September 26, 2026. Across those appearances, he averaged 31.0 minutes per game and recorded zero goals, two assists, three total shots, two shots on target, and one interception.

Analysis: Within this 10-match sample, Skahan functioned as a limited-minute rotational option. While three total shots across 310 total sample minutes represents low overall shot volume, his two assists account for direct involvement in scoring sequences. Subtracting his availability removes a contributor who generated two setup actions within a limited playing window.

Team Context and Market Alignment

Analysis: San Jose's 10-game baseline from August 15, 2026, to September 26, 2026, shows 3 wins and 3 draws. The Earthquakes averaged 1.30 goals scored and 1.80 goals allowed, while maintaining 53.2% average possession and averaging 12.1 shots (4.3 on target) per game.

Looking ahead to San Jose's away match against Real Salt Lake on October 15, 2026, market pricing sets Real Salt Lake as a -0.5 home favorite with a match total of 3.5. Analysis: For a San Jose side operating with a negative goal differential (-0.50 per game), Skahan's absence subtracts a bench contributor who accounted for two setup plays across his 10-game sample.
