Unlucky so far. Better days ahead.

0.7σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.295
xwOBA (deserved)0.317

Jordan’s wOBA sits at 0.295, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.317 — a gap of 0.022, 0.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 200 PA. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
