Hall of Stats

So far in his career, Adam Eaton has made 3,910 plate appearances and pitched 1 innings. Eaton has been worth 18.3 Wins Above Replacement (18.4 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher) and 5.9 Wins Above Average (5.8 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher).

After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.3 WAR becomes 17.8 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 5.9 WAA becomes 10.1 adjWAA.

Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA. This gives Eaton 36.0 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).

Adam Eaton has a Hall Rating of 34, meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
