Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Houston Astros.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | Minimum | Minimum | Arb 1 | Arb 2 | Arb 3 | Arb 4 |
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.

The Bureau on Jason Alexander
The scouting press, in their own words
The Cardinals acquired OF Alexander Frias in the Dustin May trade. Frias is just 18 and has already posted EVs up to 117 MPH, though the launch profile still needs work. He dominated the ACL with a .441/.518/.678 slash line and has held his own since moving up to Single-A. https://t.co/9Us8ie0vKF
Umpire favor
-0.3 net runs over 2 graded games — the zone cost the umpire more than it gave, on balance.
