Over the course of his career,
Steve Toole
pitched 443 innings
and made 234 plate appearances.
Toole
was worth
0.0 Wins Above Replacement
(-0.7 as a pitcher and 0.7 as a hitter)
and -2.3 Wins Above Average
(-2.9 as a pitcher and 0.6 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 0.0 WAR becomes
0.1 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 -2.3 WAA becomes 1.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Toole 2.4 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).
Steve Toole has a Hall Rating of
2,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
