Roupp is a buy — elite suppression, steady improvement.

His expected ERA is 3.36, three-quarters of a run below the league average of 4.10, and he has faced 411 batters — enough for that number to be reliable. The building blocks match: a 25.3% strikeout rate beats the league by three points, and he holds opponents to a 28.2% hard-hit rate against a league average of 40.0%. That is not a fluke — his sample of batted balls is past the stabilization threshold. His barrel rate allowed is 3.8%, half the league norm. The xERA has been stepping down across the sample, meaning his underlying skill is actually getting better. He walks a few more than average, but nothing that undermines the core story: he suppresses contact and earns his results. Buy. 62 K, 3.36 ERA, 1.36 WHIP, 3-6 W — this is a deep-league asset with reliable skills; add now.
