Over the course of his career,
Milt Wilcox
pitched 2,016 innings
and made 69 plate appearances.
Wilcox
was worth
13.4 Wins Above Replacement
(13.0 as a pitcher and 0.3 as a hitter)
and -4.8 Wins Above Average
(-4.9 as a pitcher and 0.3 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 13.4 WAR becomes
14.3 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 -4.8 WAA becomes 4.2 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Wilcox 21.9 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).
Milt Wilcox has a Hall Rating of
21,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
