Over the course of his career,
Eric Rasmussen
pitched 1,017 innings
and made 306 plate appearances.
Rasmussen
was worth
5.0 Wins Above Replacement
(5.8 as a pitcher and -0.8 as a hitter)
and -3.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.6 as a pitcher and -0.8 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.0 WAR becomes
5.1 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 -3.5 WAA becomes 2.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rasmussen 8.7 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).
Eric Rasmussen has a Hall Rating of
8,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
