Over the course of his career,
Ed Rile
made 1,703 plate appearances
and pitched 748 innings.
Rile
was worth
26.0 Wins Above Replacement
(11.1 as a hitter and 15.0 as a pitcher)
and 15.2 Wins Above Average
(6.5 as a hitter and 8.8 as a pitcher).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 26.0 WAR becomes
32.7 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 15.2 WAA becomes 18.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Rile 65.3 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).
Ed Rile has a Hall Rating of
61,
leaving him short of induction to the Hall of Stats.
