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

Archive Projection

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.

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.

Translation risk

The current line still has to prove it translates to an MLB role instead of just surviving the minors.

Summary

Above Average Skill, standard runway, and balanced org still support a normal prospect-style read. The current median path looks like `Depth Arm`, with `Moderate Ceiling` upside if the development path keeps moving.
