-0.9σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.358
xwOBA (deserved)0.330

Sánchez’s wOBA sits at 0.358, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.330 — a gap of 0.028, -0.9 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 306 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
