   He strikes out more often than 68% of the Florida State League hitters (150+ PA): the 68th percentile for strikeouts. The player page’s tracking bar ranks the other way (higher is better). The target beats regression to the mean: it is his expected next season with no plan (a value this far from the Bradenton (FSL) median tends to come back part of the way) plus the step a quarter of similar players beat. At 22, he’s about 2 years younger than the typical Bradenton (FSL) player, so the level median is a high bar.

   Strikeout rate: 28% target 24% no plan ≈ 27% No one-season check: a lean. Telling this target from noise takes about 467 plate appearances; he had 249 in 2026. If he moves up, there’s no public pitch tracking: check his strikeout rate (K%) in box scores instead. Level-adjusted targets: K% at or under 23.5% at High-A Greensboro and 23.5% at Double-A Altoona: the FSL target shifted by each league’s 2026 strikeout rate (South Atlantic League 24.6%, Eastern League 24.7%, FSL 24.8%). Or the club’s own tracking. Bradenton (FSL) tracking

Each goal is checked when his sample can tell the target from noise: the 2027 All-Star break if it can by then, else season’s end or the sample it needs; if no single season can, it’s a lean. Coach card
