Caissie is a hold — average line, but the strikeouts cap him.

His expected wOBA is .302, thirteen points under the league average of .315, and his actual wOBA of .304 tracks right with it — there is no luck story pulling the line up or down. The contact quality is actually good, and based on enough batted balls to trust: 91.1 mph average exit velocity, a 44.9% hard-hit rate, and 14.2% barrels, all above league. But the strikeout rate is 37.3% against a league average of 22.0%, and that number is stable at 330 plate appearances. That gap is the whole problem. A 16.4% swing-and-miss rate and a strikeout rate still climbing across the sample mean his contact has to carry a lot of weight. His expected wOBA has been stepping down, not up. The skill is real; the whiffs cap the ceiling. Hold.
