Unlucky so far. Better days ahead.

1.9σ gap
wOBA-against (actual)0.326
xwOBA-against (deserved)0.268

Hudson’s wOBA-against sits at 0.326, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.268 — a gap of 0.058, 1.9 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 57 IP. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
