Over the course of his career,
CC Sabathia
pitched 3,577 innings
and made 127 plate appearances.
Sabathia
was worth
62.4 Wins Above Replacement
(61.8 as a pitcher and 0.5 as a hitter)
and 28.8 Wins Above Average
(28.3 as a pitcher and 0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 62.4 WAR becomes
62.4 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 28.8 WAA becomes 32.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sabathia 120.7 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).
CC Sabathia has a Hall Rating of
113,
meaning he will be in the Hall of Stats when eligible.
