Scout’s note
Shea Langeliers hits the ball hard — an EV95 of 109.2, 89th percentile of tracked bats — and his luck gap of -0.0302 puts results within a shade of what the physics support. The .263 average and 23 home runs in 93 games are exactly what the contact says they should be. A first-round pick from Portland in 2019, he's 28 now, with 111 career home runs and 540 strikeouts in 528 games — the power and the whiffs arrive together. The engine slots him No. 52 on the breakout composite, just outside the board's 20.

Current signals
The read: Langeliers is tracked, not flagged: an EV95 of 109.2 (89th percentile of the 375 qualified MLB bats we track; median 105.8) with results within 0.030 of what the physics support — nothing owed, nothing borrowed. The boards hunt mispricing, and his price is right. He sits No. 47 of 375 on the breakout composite; the board takes 20.

What the sheet prices each season at

|---|---|---|---|
| Salary | 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.
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.
