Regression watch
Running hot. Expect some cooling.
Rushing’s wOBA sits at 0.458, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.364 — a gap of 0.095, -2.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 146 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
