Scout’s note

Jordan Walker hits the ball as hard as nearly anyone — an EV95 of 112.1 puts him in the 99th percentile of the 406 bats we track — and his results sit within 0.021 of what the physics say they should be. Nothing owed, nothing borrowed. A 6'6", 250-pound right fielder out of Stone Mountain, Georgia, taken in the first round of 2020, he's driven in 102 this year, seventh in baseball. He's No. 151 on the breakout composite; the board takes the top 20, so it's not chasing him. The price is right, and the boards don't hunt what isn't mispriced.

Current signals

The read: Walker is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 112.1 (99th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.021 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 151 of 406 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

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

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.
