Scout’s note

Crawford debuted this March at 22, a first-round pick from Phoenix, and his EV95 of 104.6 puts him 31st-percentile of the 372 qualified bats we track — below the 105.9 median. His luck gap of 0.0234 means results sit almost exactly where the physics say they should: nothing owed, nothing borrowed. At No. 305 of 372 on the breakout composite, the board — which takes 20 — isn't coming. The .267 average over 123 games is a fair price for the contact behind it.

Current signals

The read: Crawford is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 104.6 (33rd percentile of the 375 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.022 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 300 of 375 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

3 / 3

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, Philadelphia Phillies.

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.

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.
