That suggests to me he is a great Triple-A player but, for whatever reason, is only, at best, a mediocre major league player. Or it could be he's just having a career year in the minors and will soon revert to his actual talent level.
In any case, as RchW pointed out, unless he's set to become a minor league free agent after the end of the season, you've got him under contract anyway. (And even better you can try to outright him as often as you want without consequence since, unlike in real life, an OOTP player does not have the choice to elect free agency rather than accept a second outright assignment in his career. A real player also has the right to refuse an outright assignment and elect free agency instead if he has three or more years of major league service.)
