Unlucky so far. Better days ahead.

0.5σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.251
xwOBA (deserved)0.272

Bader’s wOBA sits at 0.251, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.272 — a gap of 0.021, 0.5 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 114 PA. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
