Scout’s note

A 23-year-old switch-hitter from Santo Domingo, Amador debuted in June 2024 and has just 5 big-league games this season — .300 in a sliver of playing time. His EV95 of 105.215 puts him at the 52nd percentile of 446 Triple-A bats we track, almost dead center of the 105.0 median: ordinary hard contact, not a flag. There's no luck gap for him — that number is measured off major-league results, and he barely has any, so there's nothing here yet to call fair or mispriced.

Current signals

The read: Amador is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 105.1 (51st percentile of the 455 qualified Triple-A bats we track; median 105.0). The engine prints no luck gap for him: that number is measured off major-league results and he has none this season, so there is nothing here to call fair or mispriced.

Regime read from his service time, not from the sheet — it does not project him past this season. Super Two eligibility is the top 22% of a class and can move this line in a way service time alone cannot see.

Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Colorado Rockies.

A second set of books

The same contract, read by MLB Spreadsheets (Ethan Hullihen), as of August 20, 2026. We keep two sources on this because one source cannot check itself.

Pre-Arb

The tax AAV above is his number under the CBA’s own rulebook, not the average we work out from Cot’s total. On a contract with deferred money the two come apart on purpose — and neither is subtracted from the other.
