Running hot. Expect some cooling.

-0.7σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.291
xwOBA (deserved)0.264

Perkins’s wOBA sits at 0.291, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.264 — a gap of 0.027, -0.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 108 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
