Over the course of his career,
William Ross
pitched 753 innings
and made 350 plate appearances.
Ross
was worth
5.2 Wins Above Replacement
(2.9 as a pitcher and 2.2 as a hitter)
and -1.3 Wins Above Average
(-3.4 as a pitcher and 2.1 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 5.2 WAR becomes
6.3 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 -1.3 WAA becomes 1.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Ross 8.3 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).
William Ross has a Hall Rating of
8,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
