Over the course of his career,
Ryan Dempster
pitched 2,387 innings
and made 688 plate appearances.
Dempster
was worth
18.5 Wins Above Replacement
(22.3 as a pitcher and -3.7 as a hitter)
and -0.5 Wins Above Average
(3.2 as a pitcher and -3.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.5 WAR becomes
18.8 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 -0.5 WAA becomes 15.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Dempster 46.5 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).
Ryan Dempster has a Hall Rating of
44,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
