wOBA (actual)0.361

Foscue’s wOBA sits at 0.361, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.328 — a gap of 0.034, -1.1 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 255 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
