Quick answer

Watch

Koonce finished DL154 in 2026. Recent form cooled from DL68 to DL154 — watch whether that's noise or a real step down. 2026 stopped at 1 games; staying on the field is the swing factor. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
