Over the course of his career,
Luke Hochevar
pitched 929 innings
and made 17 plate appearances.
Hochevar
was worth
3.7 Wins Above Replacement
(3.8 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter)
and -4.8 Wins Above Average
(-4.8 as a pitcher and -0.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.7 WAR becomes
4.2 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 -4.8 WAA becomes 1.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Hochevar 7.6 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).
Luke Hochevar has a Hall Rating of
7,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
