Scout’s note

Bregman's EV95 of 103.05 sits in just the 14th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track — well below the median of 105.8 — and his luck gap of 0.0265 says his .265 average and 28 home runs for Chicago are honestly earned. The board ranks him 359th of 406 on the breakout composite; it takes 20. A 32-year-old from Albuquerque, drafted in the first round in 2015, he has 237 career home runs across 1,380 games. The contact has softened, but the results still hold.

Current signals

The read: Bregman is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 103.0 (14th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.026 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 359 of 406 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

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

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.
