wOBA (actual)0.349

Jones’s wOBA sits at 0.349, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.327 — a gap of 0.021, -0.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 295 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
