Scout’s note
Anthony Gose is a 36-year-old left-hander from Bellflower, California, in his second life as a big-league pitcher. Across 45 MLB games he has 48 strikeouts, and his last two weeks brought three strikeouts in three appearances — the kind of late-career relief work that holds a roster spot without making headlines.

What the sheet prices each season at

| Salary | Arb 1 | Arb 2 | Arb 3 |
A base salary under his own reading, and never subtracted from the cash figure above: a signing bonus lands in one and not the other, so the two disagree on most men without either being wrong. And the sheet does not mark which future seasons are GUARANTEED — a club option and a projected arbitration award are both just a number here, so read past the end of the deal as his forecast rather than as money owed.
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.
