Over the course of his career,
Bob Gilks
made 1,449 plate appearances
and pitched 160 innings.
Gilks
was worth
-1.2 Wins Above Replacement
(-3.9 as a hitter and 2.6 as a pitcher)
and -6.1 Wins Above Average
(-7.9 as a hitter and 1.8 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the -1.2 WAR becomes
-2.2 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 -6.1 WAA becomes 2.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Gilks 1.4 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).
Bob Gilks has a Hall Rating of
1,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
