Over the course of his career,
Count Gedney
made 845 plate appearances
and pitched 11 innings.
Gedney
was worth
2.5 Wins Above Replacement
(2.0 as a hitter and 0.5 as a pitcher)
and -0.3 Wins Above Average
(-0.8 as a hitter and 0.4 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 2.5 WAR becomes
5.0 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 -0.3 WAA becomes 1.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Gedney 6.8 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).
Count Gedney has a Hall Rating of
6,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
