Over the course of his career,
Dave Kingman
made 7,429 plate appearances
and pitched 4 innings.
Kingman
was worth
17.5 Wins Above Replacement
(17.4 as a hitter and -0.1 as a pitcher)
and -6.7 Wins Above Average
(-6.7 as a hitter and -0.2 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 17.5 WAR becomes
17.6 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 -6.7 WAA becomes 5.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Kingman 28.0 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).
Dave Kingman has a Hall Rating of
26,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
