Over the course of his career,
Dutch Leonard
pitched 2,192 innings
and made 816 plate appearances.
Leonard
was worth
36.9 Wins Above Replacement
(37.4 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter)
and 16.3 Wins Above Average
(16.8 as a pitcher and -0.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 36.9 WAR becomes
38.7 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 16.3 WAA becomes 19.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Leonard 74.2 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).
Dutch Leonard has a Hall Rating of
70,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
