Over the course of his career,
George Zettlein
pitched 2,176 innings
and made 1,109 plate appearances.
Zettlein
was worth
27.3 Wins Above Replacement
(31.1 as a pitcher and -3.6 as a hitter)
and 10.6 Wins Above Average
(14.3 as a pitcher and -3.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 27.3 WAR becomes
16.8 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 10.6 WAA becomes 14.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Zettlein 42.5 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).
George Zettlein has a Hall Rating of
40,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
