Over the course of his career,
Ivan Rodriguez
made 10,270 plate appearances.
Rodriguez was worth 63.7 Wins Above Replacement
and 33.2 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 63.7 WAR becomes
76.8 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 33.2 WAA becomes 45.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rodriguez 153.4 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).
Ivan Rodriguez has a Hall Rating of 151,
meaning he will be in the Hall of Stats when eligible.
