Over the course of his career,
Jack Sanford
pitched 2,049 innings
and made 760 plate appearances.
Sanford
was worth
18.6 Wins Above Replacement
(17.8 as a pitcher and 0.8 as a hitter)
and -0.7 Wins Above Average
(-1.6 as a pitcher and 0.8 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 18.6 WAR becomes
18.6 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 -0.7 WAA becomes 5.1 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Sanford 27.8 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).
Jack Sanford has a Hall Rating of
26,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
