Regression watch
Running hot. Expect some cooling.
Nuñez’s wOBA sits at 0.329, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.268 — a gap of 0.061, -2.1 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 328 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
