Over the course of his career,
Rocky Ellis
pitched 408 innings
and made 198 plate appearances.
Ellis
was worth
2.1 Wins Above Replacement
(3.0 as a pitcher and -0.9 as a hitter)
and -1.4 Wins Above Average
(-0.3 as a pitcher and -1.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 2.1 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 -1.4 WAA becomes 2.3 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Ellis 5.1 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).
Rocky Ellis has a Hall Rating of
5,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
