Over the course of his career,
Bob Knepper
pitched 2,708 innings
and made 982 plate appearances.
Knepper
was worth
22.1 Wins Above Replacement
(20.9 as a pitcher and 0.9 as a hitter)
and -1.4 Wins Above Average
(-2.3 as a pitcher and 0.9 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 22.1 WAR becomes
23.8 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 11.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Knepper 44.0 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).
Bob Knepper has a Hall Rating of
41,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
