Quick answer
WatchHardy ranks DL209 in 2026 through 2 games. Through 2 games the rank is DL209, off a DL170 season. Wait for more games before calling it a decline. The 2026 projection is thin — only roster him if you need the upside. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
