Over the course of his career,
Sammy Ellis
pitched 1,004 innings
and made 352 plate appearances.
Ellis
was worth
6.0 Wins Above Replacement
(6.7 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter)
and -3.6 Wins Above Average
(-2.7 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 6.0 WAR becomes
6.7 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 3.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Ellis 12.6 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).
Sammy Ellis has a Hall Rating of
12,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
