So far in his career,
Walker Buehler
has
pitched 638 innings
and made 195 plate appearances.
Buehler
has been worth
13.2 Wins Above Replacement
(13.0 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter)
and 7.8 Wins Above Average
(7.6 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 13.2 WAR becomes
13.6 adjWAR. Then, WAA is adjusted by ignoring negative seasons
(thus, truly capturing a player’s peak seasons) and making similar adjustments for catchers and relief pitchers.
After these adjustments, the 7.8 WAA becomes 8.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Buehler 28.4 wWAR. wWAR is then converted to Hall Rating.
A Hall Rating of 100 represents the Hall of Stats borderline (similar to OPS+ or wRC+, where 100 represents league average).
Walker Buehler has a Hall Rating of
27,
meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
