-0.2σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.325
xwOBA (deserved)0.320

Ewing’s wOBA sits at 0.325, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.320 — a gap of 0.005, -0.2 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 494 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
