So far in his career,
Clay Buchholz
has
pitched 1,332 innings
and made 54 plate appearances.
Buchholz
has been worth
16.7 Wins Above Replacement
(16.9 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter)
and 4.4 Wins Above Average
(4.6 as a pitcher and -0.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 16.7 WAR becomes
16.8 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 4.4 WAA becomes 13.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Buchholz 41.2 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).
Clay Buchholz has a Hall Rating of
38,
meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
