-0.2σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.331
xwOBA (deserved)0.324

Teel’s wOBA sits at 0.331, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.324 — a gap of 0.008, -0.2 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 140 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
