So far in his career,
Ian Desmond
has
made 5,944 plate appearances
and pitched 1 innings.
Desmond
has been worth
14.8 Wins Above Replacement
(14.8 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher)
and -4.0 Wins Above Average
(-4.1 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 14.8 WAR becomes
14.8 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 -4.0 WAA becomes 5.4 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Desmond 24.5 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).
Ian Desmond has a Hall Rating of
23,
meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
