Scout’s note

Rafael Devers is 29, in his ninth major-league season, and the contact is still elite: EV95 of 108.81, 86th percentile, well north of the 105.8 median. The luck gap is 0.0247 — tight enough that 37 home runs and 98 RBI for San Francisco are backed by what the ball is doing off the bat. He sits No. 247 of 406 on the breakout composite, which sounds modest for a man with 272 career home runs, but the composite hunts the next jump, not the established floor. From Sanchez, Dominican Republic, still hitting as hard as ever.

Current signals

The read: Devers is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 108.8 (86th percentile of the 406 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.025 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 247 of 406 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

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

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 Wire

▲ On the field: Only hitter with 300 PA and 50% hard-hit rate each of last six seasons; 30 HR as a Giant.
