Over the course of his career,
Chris Carpenter
pitched 2,219 innings
and made 501 plate appearances.
Carpenter
was worth
34.2 Wins Above Replacement
(35.2 as a pitcher and -1.1 as a hitter)
and 15.1 Wins Above Average
(16.3 as a pitcher and -1.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 34.2 WAR becomes
34.3 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 15.1 WAA becomes 19.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Carpenter 69.2 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 Carpenter has a Hall Rating of
65,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
