Scout’s note
An EV95 of 104.97 puts Marsh in the 36th percentile of 366 bats — below the 105.9 median, but with results within 0.0045 of what the physics support, nothing owed and nothing borrowed. A second-round pick out of Buford, Georgia, in 2016, now 28, he's hitting .274 with 17 home runs and 54 RBI in 122 games for Philadelphia. The breakout composite has him at No. 207 of 366; the board takes 20, and the read is clean.

Current signals
The read: Marsh is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 104.9 (36th percentile of the 375 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.002 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 224 of 375 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

What the sheet prices each season at

|---|---|---|
| Salary | 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.
Two sources, read a month apart, put this guarantee at the same dollar. That is the check, and it passed.
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.
