Over the course of his career,
Ben Zobrist
made 6,836 plate appearances
and pitched 1 innings.
Zobrist
was worth
44.6 Wins Above Replacement
(44.5 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher)
and 21.5 Wins Above Average
(21.4 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 44.6 WAR becomes
44.6 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 21.5 WAA becomes 26.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Zobrist 92.5 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).
Ben Zobrist has a Hall Rating of
87,
meaning he will fall significantly short of the Hall of Stats when eligible.
