Over the course of his career,
Willie Mitchell
pitched 1,632 innings
and made 598 plate appearances.
Mitchell
was worth
14.3 Wins Above Replacement
(17.1 as a pitcher and -3.0 as a hitter)
and -1.2 Wins Above Average
(1.9 as a pitcher and -3.0 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 14.3 WAR becomes
15.0 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 -1.2 WAA becomes 6.9 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Mitchell 27.4 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).
Willie Mitchell has a Hall Rating of
26,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
