So far in his career,
Chase Utley
has
made 5,140 plate appearances.
Utley was worth 53.3 Wins Above Replacement
and 39.8 Wins Above Average.
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 53.3 WAR becomes
53.3 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 39.8 WAA becomes 40.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Utley 121.0 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).
Chase Utley has a Hall Rating of 119,
meaning he would be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
