Scout’s note
Leo Bernal, 22, switch-hits and catches and comes out of Panama City — a 6-foot, 245-pound frame that debuted in the majors last September 1. His EV95 sits at 106.8, good for the 76th percentile of the 504 Triple-A bats we track, and that is a real, measured number off 289 balls in play: he hits the ball hard. The engine prints no luck gap, because that figure is built from major-league results and Bernal's 24-game Cardinals line (.284, .807 OPS, 5 HR) is his first exposure. Nothing here is mispriced yet — it just hasn't been priced long enough.

Current signals
The read: Bernal is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 106.8 (76th percentile of the 504 qualified Triple-A bats we track; median 104.9). The engine prints no luck gap for him: that number is measured off major-league results and he has none this season, so there is nothing here to call fair or mispriced.

The Bureau on Leo Bernal
The scouting press, in their own words
Leo Bernal has been awesome to start his big league career after a really strong season at Triple-A. A big reason why is his leap in QOC from the left side. EV: 86.3 MPH➡️89.8 MPH Hard Hit: 31%➡️43% OPS: .674➡️.860 He has developed into a solid defender too. Still just 22. https://t.co/xCqpzEWrQR
