There is no price because this card never reaches the marketplace — it can only be earned. Holding it costs you nothing, because you could not sell it if you wanted to.
It is our own score for how good a card is. Rather than trust the number the game prints on the front, it reads the card's actual ratings — power, contact, fielding and the rest — and weighs them the way the game appears to. It runs past 100 because those underlying ratings do.

What he actually does
A contact hitter first — elite contact against very good power. The splits matter here: solid power against right-handers and elite against lefties, so he is a different hitter depending on who is pitching. Very good in the field for a third baseman, with a solid arm.
