Over the course of his career,
Jeff Reardon
pitched 1,132 innings
and made 65 plate appearances.
Reardon
was worth
18.8 Wins Above Replacement
(19.0 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter)
and 6.9 Wins Above Average
(7.5 as a pitcher and -0.5 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.8 WAR becomes
23.5 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 6.9 WAA becomes 10.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Reardon 41.9 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).
Jeff Reardon has a Hall Rating of
39,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
