Running hot. Expect some cooling.

-0.7σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.309
xwOBA (deserved)0.289

Monasterio’s wOBA sits at 0.309, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.289 — a gap of 0.021, -0.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 358 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
