2.2σ gap
wOBA-against (actual)0.389
xwOBA-against (deserved)0.330

Springs’s wOBA-against sits at 0.389, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.330 — a gap of 0.059, 2.2 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 103 IP. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
