Over the course of his career,
Leon Day
pitched 609 innings
and made 653 plate appearances.
Day
was worth
18.3 Wins Above Replacement
(14.3 as a pitcher and 4.0 as a hitter)
and 12.6 Wins Above Average
(9.6 as a pitcher and 2.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.3 WAR becomes
23.1 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 12.6 WAA becomes 11.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Day 44.3 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).
Leon Day has a Hall Rating of
42,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
