Over the course of his career,
Dave Danforth
pitched 1,186 innings
and made 425 plate appearances.
Danforth
was worth
8.8 Wins Above Replacement
(9.4 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter)
and -2.4 Wins Above Average
(-1.7 as a pitcher and -0.7 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 8.8 WAR becomes
9.0 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 -2.4 WAA becomes 4.6 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Danforth 17.3 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).
Dave Danforth has a Hall Rating of
16,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
