Walks a bigger share of batters than 87% of the Florida State League pitchers (500+ pitches): the 87th percentile for walks. 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 19, he’s about 5 years younger than the typical Bradenton (FSL) player, so the level median is a high bar.
Walk rate: 17.6% target 12.9% no plan ≈ 15.0% Check after about 231 batters faced (a little more than his 2026 total) · noise then ±2.7% If he moves up, there’s no public pitch tracking: check his walk rate (BB%) in box scores instead. Level-adjusted targets: BB% at or under 12.3% at High-A Greensboro and 11.0% at Double-A Altoona: the FSL target shifted by each league’s 2026 walk rate (South Atlantic League 12.0%, Eastern League 10.7%, FSL 12.6%). 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
