Running hot. Expect some cooling.

-0.2σ gap
wOBA-against (actual)0.328
xwOBA-against (deserved)0.333

Holmes’s wOBA-against sits at 0.328, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.333 — a gap of 0.005, -0.2 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 136 IP. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
