Over the course of his career,
Ruben Jones
made 1,330 plate appearances
and pitched 5 innings.
Jones
was worth
3.2 Wins Above Replacement
(3.2 as a hitter and 0.1 as a pitcher)
and -1.3 Wins Above Average
(-1.2 as a hitter and 0.0 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 3.2 WAR becomes
5.7 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 -1.3 WAA becomes 1.0 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Jones 7.5 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).
Ruben Jones has a Hall Rating of
7,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
