Over the course of his career,
Jose Valentin
made 6,317 plate appearances.
Valentin
was worth
31.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 10.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 31.7 WAR becomes
32.2 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 10.4 WAA becomes 13.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Valentin 56.3 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).
Jose Valentin has a Hall Rating of
53,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
