Scout’s note

Leo Rivas is tracked, not flagged — the engine hasn't logged enough qualified balls in play to grade him this season. He's a 28-year-old switch-hitter from Maracay, Venezuela, listed at 5'7" and 150 pounds, with a career line of .201 over 139 games — two home runs, 11 steals, 87 strikeouts. This season's .147 across 48 games is the line the engine can't yet read against contact quality, and six games at .273 in the last two weeks haven't moved the sample.

The engine's view

The read: Rivas is tracked, not flagged — he hasn't logged enough qualified balls in play for the engine to grade him this season.

A market fact, not an engine read: what a club decided about him, on the season before this one. Figures from Cot’s, as of August 24, 2026.

Options left

1 / 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, Seattle Mariners.

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.
