Scout’s note
A 6'6" right-hander out of Orlando, Eflin has struck out 929 in 201 big-league games since his 2016 debut — a first-round pick from 2012 who has built a real starter's body of work when plenty from that class have long since stopped.

What the sheet prices each season at
| Season | 2026 | 2027 |
|---|---|---|
| Salary | $5.0M | $25.0M |
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.
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: Free agent Zach Eflin would love to stay with the Orioles despite two injury-riddled seasons in Baltimore.
