Over the course of his career,
Carl Mays
pitched 3,021 innings
and made 1,202 plate appearances.
Mays
was worth
51.3 Wins Above Replacement
(43.6 as a pitcher and 7.6 as a hitter)
and 23.7 Wins Above Average
(16.3 as a pitcher and 7.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 51.3 WAR becomes
54.6 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 23.7 WAA becomes 19.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Mays 89.3 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).
Carl Mays has a Hall Rating of
84,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
