negative regression
Betts’s wOBA sits at 0.357, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.331 — a gap of 0.025, -0.8 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 280 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
