Scout’s note

Dingler's EV95 of 106.37 puts him 59th percentile among 368 qualified MLB bats — slightly above the 105.8 median. His luck gap is -0.0212: results sitting just under what the physics support, but close enough that the board calls it square. Nothing owed, nothing borrowed. A 2020 second-rounder out of Massillon, Ohio, now 27, he's driven in 82 this year, seventh in the sport, and sits No. 117 on the breakout composite — tracked, useful, honestly priced.

Current signals

The read: Dingler is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 106.4 (60th percentile of the 373 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.018 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 128 of 373 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

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.
