Over the course of his career,
Chris Volstad
pitched 772 innings
and made 231 plate appearances.
Volstad
was worth
2.0 Wins Above Replacement
(2.5 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter)
and -4.4 Wins Above Average
(-3.8 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 2.0 WAR becomes
1.8 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 -4.4 WAA becomes 2.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Volstad 5.6 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).
Chris Volstad has a Hall Rating of
5,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats when eligible.
