Over the course of his career,
Bob Wells
pitched 635 innings
and made 1 plate appearances.
Wells
was worth
3.5 Wins Above Replacement
(3.6 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter)
and -2.8 Wins Above Average
(-2.8 as a pitcher and 0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.5 WAR becomes
4.5 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 -2.8 WAA becomes 2.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wells 9.7 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).
Bob Wells has a Hall Rating of
9,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
