Over the course of his career,
Ismael Valdez
pitched 1,827 innings
and made 474 plate appearances.
Valdez
was worth
24.2 Wins Above Replacement
(24.5 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and 9.0 Wins Above Average
(9.3 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 24.2 WAR becomes
25.2 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 9.0 WAA becomes 15.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Valdez 52.4 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).
Ismael Valdez has a Hall Rating of
49,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
