Over the course of his career,
Shin-Soo Choo
made 7,157 plate appearances.
Choo
was worth
34.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 10.5 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 34.7 WAR becomes
34.7 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 10.5 WAA becomes 15.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Choo 63.0 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).
Shin-Soo Choo has a Hall Rating of
59,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
