Over the course of his career,
Brian Anderson
pitched 1,547 innings
and made 288 plate appearances.
Anderson
was worth
10.0 Wins Above Replacement
(10.9 as a pitcher and -0.9 as a hitter)
and -3.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.5 as a pitcher and -0.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 10.0 WAR becomes
10.5 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 -3.5 WAA becomes 4.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Anderson 18.1 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).
Brian Anderson has a Hall Rating of
17,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
