Over the course of his career,
Scott Rolen
made 8,518 plate appearances.
Rolen
was worth
70.0 Wins Above Replacement
and 43.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 70.0 WAR becomes
70.0 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 43.8 WAA becomes 45.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rolen 150.8 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).
Scott Rolen has a Hall Rating of
140,
meaning he will be in the Hall of Stats when eligible.
