Over the course of his career,
Chad Kimsey
pitched 509 innings
and made 226 plate appearances.
Kimsey
was worth
4.3 Wins Above Replacement
(2.4 as a pitcher and 1.9 as a hitter)
and -0.6 Wins Above Average
(-2.4 as a pitcher and 1.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 4.3 WAR becomes
4.9 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 -0.6 WAA becomes 1.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kimsey 6.8 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).
Chad Kimsey has a Hall Rating of
6,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
