Over the course of his career,
Ryan Ludwick
made 3,986 plate appearances.
Ludwick
was worth
11.2 Wins Above Replacement
and -1.4 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 11.2 WAR becomes
11.2 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 -1.4 WAA becomes 6.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Ludwick 23.6 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).
Ryan Ludwick has a Hall Rating of
22,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
