Read original reasoning

Poulin's last 3 outings: 0.2 IP (1 K), 1.0 IP (0 K), 0.2 IP (2 K). His 2026 total is 1 K in 1.2 IP — functioning as a micro-reliever in a spot-start role. Even if he goes 2 innings, he averaged 1.10 K/IP in 2025 (27 K in 24.2 IP), making 2+ Ks a coin flip at best. His workload cap likely keeps him under 2 full innings, suppressing total K output. Under at -189 reflects market consensus that aligns with his usage.
