Regression watch
Running hot. Expect some cooling.
Ballesteros’s wOBA sits at 0.308, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.290 — a gap of 0.018, -0.6 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 371 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
