Over the course of his career,
Candy Cummings
pitched 2,149 innings
and made 1,084 plate appearances.
Cummings
was worth
36.1 Wins Above Replacement
(38.2 as a pitcher and -2.1 as a hitter)
and 19.9 Wins Above Average
(22.2 as a pitcher and -2.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 36.1 WAR becomes
27.1 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 19.9 WAA becomes 19.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Cummings 62.9 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).
Candy Cummings has a Hall Rating of
59,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
