Over the course of his career,
Rick Cerone
made 4,504 plate appearances
and pitched 2 innings.
Cerone
was worth
8.1 Wins Above Replacement
(8.0 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher)
and -6.6 Wins Above Average
(-6.7 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 8.1 WAR becomes
9.5 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 -6.6 WAA becomes 5.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Cerone 18.5 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).
Rick Cerone has a Hall Rating of
17,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
