Over the course of his career,
Ian Kinsler
made 8,299 plate appearances
and pitched 1 innings.
Kinsler
was worth
54.2 Wins Above Replacement
(54.1 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher)
and 26.5 Wins Above Average
(26.4 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 54.2 WAR becomes
54.2 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 26.5 WAA becomes 28.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kinsler 105.9 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).
Ian Kinsler has a Hall Rating of
99.5,
meaning he will not be in the Hall of Stats when eligible—but he will be close.
