Scout’s note
A 25-year-old right-hander out of Brisbane, Bidois owns a stuff grade of 0.67 — 95th percentile among the 760 AAA arms we track, where the median is 0.05. That number is the arm, not the line: 15.2 big-league innings have yielded a 6.32 ERA and 20 strikeouts, the rawest kind of education. Stuff is not command, and command is what turns a watchlist arm into a call. But the physics say the ball leaves his hand different from most.
Current signals
The read: Bidois's stuff grade of 0.64 ranks in the 95th percentile of the 767 AAA arms we track (median 0.05). Stuff is not command — watchlist, not a call — but stuff comes first.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 | 2032 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | Minimum | Minimum | Minimum | Minimum | 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.
