wOBA (actual)0.326

Wong’s wOBA sits at 0.326, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.288 — a gap of 0.038, -1.2 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 235 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
