Scout’s note

Pete Crow-Armstrong's EV95 of 108.6 places him in the 84th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track — strong, not spectacular, but his results run 0.037 ahead of what the physics says he should produce. That gap is real but shy of the fade line. The 2020 first-rounder from Sherman Oaks leads baseball with 45 home runs this season, sits fourth in RBI with 107, and fifth in stolen bases with 41 — a 10.6-WAR player at 24. He's tracked, not flagged. He sits 297th of 406 on the breakout composite, and the board takes 20, so this is not a man the engine thinks is due for more.

Cash and the tax hit are two different rulebooks and are never subtracted from one another — see the payroll board for his club, Chicago Cubs.

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.
