Over the course of his career,
Keith Foulke
pitched 786 innings
and made 18 plate appearances.
Foulke
was worth
20.6 Wins Above Replacement
(20.8 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter)
and 11.0 Wins Above Average
(10.9 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 20.6 WAR becomes
25.1 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 11.0 WAA becomes 15.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Foulke 53.7 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).
Keith Foulke has a Hall Rating of
50,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
