1.0σ gap
wOBA (actual)0.313
xwOBA (deserved)0.340

Smith’s wOBA sits at 0.313, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.340 — a gap of 0.027, 1.0 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 374 PA. The results have been worse than the process deserves; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to climb back toward the underlying level.
