Over the course of his career,
Bill Barnes
pitched 175 innings
and made 73 plate appearances.
Barnes
was worth
-0.1 Wins Above Replacement
(0.3 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and -1.4 Wins Above Average
(-1.0 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -0.1 WAR becomes
-0.6 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 -1.4 WAA becomes 0.5 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Barnes 0.3 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).
Bill Barnes has a Hall Rating of
0,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
