So far in his career,
Stephen Strasburg
has
pitched 1,443 innings
and made 514 plate appearances.
Strasburg
has been worth
33.3 Wins Above Replacement
(32.1 as a pitcher and 1.3 as a hitter)
and 21.6 Wins Above Average
(20.4 as a pitcher and 1.3 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 33.3 WAR becomes
32.9 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 21.6 WAA becomes 20.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Strasburg 70.1 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).
Stephen Strasburg has a Hall Rating of
65,
meaning he would not be in the Hall of Stats if his career ended today.
