Over the course of his career,
Russ Meyer
pitched 1,531 innings
and made 569 plate appearances.
Meyer
was worth
9.3 Wins Above Replacement
(12.7 as a pitcher and -3.4 as a hitter)
and -5.5 Wins Above Average
(-2.3 as a pitcher and -3.4 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 9.3 WAR becomes
9.8 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 -5.5 WAA becomes 5.8 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Meyer 20.2 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).
Russ Meyer has a Hall Rating of
19,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
