Running hot. Expect some cooling.

-0.4σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.335
xwOBA (deserved)0.321

Teel’s wOBA sits at 0.335, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.321 — a gap of 0.014, -0.4 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 144 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
