Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 25 → 30). Over the 4 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2023/24.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, 35th of 87 of the 87 centre-backs in the Major League Soccer. At 28 Rowles is in his prime years, and a market index of 5.5 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Rowles missed 3 games through injury (international duty, yellow cards) out of roughly 34 this season. The 31 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2023/24 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
