negative regression
Laureano’s wOBA sits at 0.327, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.312 — a gap of 0.015, -0.5 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 224 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
