Over the course of his career,
Cy Blanton
pitched 1,218 innings
and made 474 plate appearances.
Blanton
was worth
13.9 Wins Above Replacement
(14.9 as a pitcher and -1.1 as a hitter)
and 3.6 Wins Above Average
(4.7 as a pitcher and -1.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 13.9 WAR becomes
14.2 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 3.6 WAA becomes 6.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Blanton 26.3 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).
Cy Blanton has a Hall Rating of
25,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
