Scout’s note

Drafted in the fourth round out of Pomona, California in 2019, Freeman stands 5'9" at age 25 and has hit .234 across 48 big-league games. An EV95 of 101.55 puts him near the bottom — 8th percentile of the 444 Triple-A bats we track, where the median is 105.0. No luck gap prints for him: that measure runs off major-league results, and there is nothing to call fair or mispriced. At 8th-percentile contact, the read says this bat hasn't earned a break.

Current signals

The read: Freeman is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 101.5 (7th 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, Texas Rangers.

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.

His class

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.
