Reliever-path profile with some real indicators, but the current bullpen read is still more provisional than the hitter or starter sides.

Archive Projection

Low-Leverage / Depth Arm

Fan-facing translation of the archived read.

Archive Outlook

The current bullpen/rotation path looks more depth-oriented than impact-oriented right now.

Bat-missing quality

The bullpen lane needs more than role usage. The stuff still has to miss bats consistently.

Command pressure

Too many free passes would cap this at low-leverage depth.

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. `Useful Reliever` is better read as an upper bound on role usefulness than as a clean growth-path forecast, especially with AAAA-style risk present.
