Regression watch
Running hot. Expect some cooling.
Aranda’s wOBA sits at 0.385, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.372 — a gap of 0.012, -0.4 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 298 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
