Over the course of his career,
Cal McVey
made 2,543 plate appearances
and pitched 176 innings.
McVey
was worth
19.2 Wins Above Replacement
(20.2 as a hitter and -0.9 as a pitcher)
and 9.9 Wins Above Average
(12.2 as a hitter and -2.3 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 19.2 WAR becomes
39.0 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 9.9 WAA becomes 14.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives McVey 64.4 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).
Cal McVey has a Hall Rating of
61,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
