negative regression
Walls’s wOBA sits at 0.297, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.255 — a gap of 0.042, -1.4 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 273 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
