Scout’s note
Ha-Seong Kim, the 31-year-old shortstop from Bucheon, has 639 MLB games and a .234 average. His last 14 days in the big leagues are just two games, but he drew three walks against two strikeouts — a 1.100 OPS built almost entirely on the base on balls.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 |
|---|---|
| Salary | $20.0M |
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.
