Over the course of his career,
Placido Polanco
made 7,887 plate appearances.
Polanco
was worth
41.8 Wins Above Replacement
and 17.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 41.8 WAR becomes
41.8 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 17.2 WAA becomes 21.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Polanco 79.8 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).
Placido Polanco has a Hall Rating of
75,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
