wOBA (actual)0.335
xwOBA (deserved)0.287

Durbin’s wOBA sits at 0.335, but the quality of contact underneath says it should be 0.287 — a gap of 0.047, -1.7 standard deviations from the MLB norm over 339 PA. The results have outrun the underlying process; as the sample grows, expect the numbers to drift back toward the deserved level.
