2.1σ gap
wOBA-against (actual)0.424
xwOBA-against (deserved)0.357

Quintana’s wOBA-against sits at 0.424, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.357 — a gap of 0.067, 2.1 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 51 IP. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
