Average Skill AAA performance with meaningful runway, but the overall shape reads more like a possible AAAA hold than a clean MLB push.

Back-End Starter

Fan-facing translation of the archived read.

Archive Outlook

Right now the profile fits more as a back-end starter unless the quality jumps another notch.

Missing-bat test

The profile still needs a firmer bat-missing foundation to move into a stronger rotation lane.

Role clarity

A cleaner starter-versus-reliever shape would make the projection much more stable.

Older AAA bar

Being older for the level raises the bar. This has to look like real big-league quality, not just a good upper-minors line.

Summary

The upper-minors performance is still informative, but the right frame is narrow-path depth rather than open-ended prospect projection. `Depth Arm` is better read as an upper bound on role usefulness than as a clean growth-path forecast, especially with AAAA-style risk present.
