Over the course of his career,
Walt Dickson
pitched 700 innings
and made 253 plate appearances.
Dickson
was worth
-0.8 Wins Above Replacement
(0.3 as a pitcher and -1.2 as a hitter)
and -4.9 Wins Above Average
(-3.7 as a pitcher and -1.2 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -0.8 WAR becomes
-1.0 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 -4.9 WAA becomes 0.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Dickson -0.5 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).
Walt Dickson has a Hall Rating of
0,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
