So far in his career,
Bartolo Colon
has
pitched 3,172 innings
and made 302 plate appearances.
Colon
has been worth
48.0 Wins Above Replacement
(49.5 as a pitcher and -1.5 as a hitter)
and 18.7 Wins Above Average
(20.2 as a pitcher and -1.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 48.0 WAR becomes
48.1 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 18.7 WAA becomes 26.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Colon 95.8 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).
Bartolo Colon has a Hall Rating of
90,
meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today—but he would be close.
