Scout’s note
Our stuff model won't grade him: it's stability-tested, not outcome-validated, and no big-league arm gets a board flag from it — not even for a 23-year-old 2022 first-round pick out of Chicago. Murphy has five MLB starts (Braves), 9 strikeouts in 12.0 innings, and a 6.00 ERA. The ERA-FIP luck gap cleared the regression bar, so there's a hand-filed call on the arm. He's in the Index because he matters; the board grade waits for the science.

Current signals
The read: Murphy is in the Index ungraded, on purpose: our stuff model is stability-tested but not outcome-validated, so no big-league arm gets a board flag from it — not even one of the best seasons in the sport. (Calls are another matter: the ERA-FIP luck gap did clear the bar, and we file arm regression calls by hand from it.) The page is here because the player matters; the board grade waits for the science.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 | 2028 | 2029 | 2030 | 2031 | 2032 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | Minimum | Minimum | Minimum | Minimum | Arb 1 | Arb 2 | Arb 3 |
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.
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.
