Over the course of his career,
Luis Valbuena
made 3,571 plate appearances.
Valbuena
was worth
8.5 Wins Above Replacement
and -3.6 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 8.5 WAR becomes
8.5 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 -3.6 WAA becomes 2.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Valbuena 13.5 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).
Luis Valbuena has a Hall Rating of
13,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats when eligible.
