Scout’s note
At 21, Lara is the youngest bat on this page, tracked but quiet: an EV95 of 103.595, 20th percentile of 406 qualified bats, with results within 0.0064 of the physics. He sits No. 252 of 406 on the breakout composite, well outside the 20 the board takes. The switch-hitter from San Felipe, Venezuela, debuted in 2026 and has 61 major-league games with Milwaukee, batting .246 with one homer. The contact is soft and the sample is thin, but at 21, both can change.

Current signals
The read: Lara is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 103.6 (20th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.006 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 252 of 406 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

No hollow dots on his strip. He had not reached 100 balls in play by , so there is no earlier place to mark. He has 144 now.
What he’s paid
Under contractA market fact, not an engine read: what a club decided about him, on the season before this one. Figures from Cot’s, as of .
- 2026 salary
- $2.29M
- Tax hit
- $4.43M
- Service time
- 0 yr 83 d
- Guaranteed
- $31M
The deal 7 years $31M (2026–2032), unspecified option for 2033, unspecified option for 2034, unspecified option for 2035 — $4.4M a year on average, worked out by us rather than stated on the sheet, and not the same thing as the tax hit above
On the sheet: 7 y/$31M (26-32)+33-35 opts · 2 / 3 options left
After this season, as the sheet has it
| Season | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash | $3.3M | $4.3M | $5.3M | $6.3M |
| Tax hit | $4.4M | $4.4M | $4.4M | $4.4M |
Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Milwaukee Brewers.
A second set of books
The same contract, read by MLB Spreadsheets (Ethan Hullihen), as of . We keep two sources on this because one source cannot check itself.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 | 2032 | 2033 | 2034 | 2035 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | $2.0M | $2.0M | $3.0M | $4.0M | $5.0M | $6.0M | $7.0M | $10.0M | $11.0M | $12.0M |
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.
Two sources, read a month apart, put this guarantee at the same dollar. That is the check, and it passed.
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 scouting press, in their own words
THE HUMAN ELEMENT Sometimes the most important part of a baseball game never shows up in the box score. September 8. Brewers-Cubs. Twenty-one-year-old Luis Lara is having a rough night. He’s 0-for-4, grounded into a double play, struck out twice and earlier burned one of https://t.co/vaCz86pqkh

Umpire favor
-1.9 net runs over 30 graded games — the zone cost the umpire more than it gave, on balance.
